How is SmartGraft different from regular FUE?

SmartGraft is regular FUE but enhanced!
Dec 26, 2019

This is a good question. The main differences in my practice between SmartGraft and regular FUE are that SmartGraft is a closed system, so grafts are excised and stored directly in a storage device without having to be manually removed from the excision site. This means the grafts are not exposed to potential additional trauma. Furthermore, I have found that with the smart graft I can reduce the depth of my incision with the punch this means less tissue trauma and faster healing of the…

Is it harmful to use oil after 1 months and 1 week after hair transplant?

Given the stage your at after hair transplant i.e. 6 weeks there is no issue with using oil. Both organ and coconut oil are fine to use. In fact a lot of my clients at this stage prefer to use oil in order to reduce the itch and dryness that may occur. It helps sooth the scalp. All the best.

Are there different growth patterns after FUE transplant?

Varying growth patterns.

My advice would be not to jump to any conclusions until you are around 18 months post hair transplant. Until this point the hair growth can be dynamic following a hair transplant (although after 12 months in my experience things tend to be stable). Various factors may be playing a part for example your use of finasteride and the topical minoxidil. Also, there may be other environmental factors that cause an issue, such as stress. The early growth you noticed at 5 months…

Almost 7 weeks after hair transplant, some transplanted hair has fallen, some has not.

The shedding phase !
Dec 6, 2019

This is a completely normal and physiological phase to be expected after a hair transplant. In my experience I have found that post hair transplant clients shed to different extents and also at slightly differing times. Most of the shedding however tends to be within the first 3 months. All the best with your hair restoration journey.
