Myths vs Facts
Separate Truth from Fiction
Transplanted hair is your own natural hair. All hair treatments — cutting, trimming, coloring, shampoo, gel, oil — are completely safe.
Absolutely false. Hair transplant only involves the scalp skin. It doesn't go below the skin or come in contact with the brain.
Only your own body's hair can be transplanted — from your scalp, beard, chest, arms, or legs. Your body will reject hair from another person.
Done under local anesthesia. You won't feel any pain and can resume daily activities the same day.
With advanced techniques like Bio-FUE, bleeding is negligible.
People in their 40s and 50s get excellent results too, as long as they have sufficient donor area.
Results look completely natural. Dr. Anshalika carefully plans the hairline angle and placement for the most natural appearance.
Absolutely no connection. The procedure cannot cause any disease or health issue.
Done on scalp skin only under local anesthesia — zero effect on fertility, sexual life, or married life.
Results are nearly permanent. Initial shedding after one month is natural and temporary. New hair grows from grafts in 6-8 months.
Works for both men and women. Women with hair loss get excellent results when done by the right doctor.
Bio-FUE is a one-time cost with permanent results — one of the most cost-effective long-term solutions.
Results visible in 6-8 months, full head of hair in 9-12 months. The wait is worth it.
It's a daycare procedure — morning to evening — and you go home the same day.
