After the careful extraction and channel opening stages, Phase 3 of the hair transplant process is where the real transformation begins. Known as the Transplantation Phase, this step involves placing the harvested hair grafts into the prepared recipient area to rebuild your hairline and restore density.
If you’re considering a hair transplant in the UK, understanding what happens during this stage can help you feel more confident and prepared for your treatment.
🔄 What Happens During the Transplantation Phase?
In this final stage of an FUE hair transplant (or DHI, depending on the method), your surgeon and their team begin the meticulous process of implanting grafts one by one into the scalp. These grafts, extracted from the donor area (typically the back or sides of the head), are inserted into the previously opened channels with incredible precision.
Each follicle is positioned according to:
The natural angle and direction of your existing hair
The desired density and coverage
Your facial structure and hairline design
This artistic and technical process is essential for achieving natural-looking and permanent results.
👥 A Collaborative, Efficient Process
To ensure the best hair transplant results, this phase is performed by a highly skilled team, often including a lead doctor and several medical technicians. The team works together seamlessly to speed up the process, reduce the time grafts are kept outside the body, and maximise graft survival.
The transplantation phase typically takes 2–3 hours, depending on the number of grafts being placed and the size of the treatment area.
💡 Why This Phase Matters
This stage isn’t just about putting hair back—it’s about strategic placement that ensures your new hair:
Blends naturally with your existing hair
Grows in the correct direction
Mimics natural density and volume
Whether you’re getting a hair transplant in London or anywhere else in the UK, the expertise and precision applied during this step are key to achieving a lifelike and aesthetically pleasing result.
