Are Hair Transplants Permanent?

Hair transplants are considered a long-term solution for hair loss because the transplanted hair follicles are typically taken from the permanent donor area on the back and sides of the scalp. These follicles are generally resistant to the effects of hereditary hair loss and continue to grow in their new location.

Will My Transplanted Hair Continue to Grow?

Yes. Once the transplanted follicles establish a healthy blood supply, they normally continue to grow just like they did in the donor area. After the initial shedding phase, new hair growth usually begins within several months, with continued improvement over the following year.

Can I Continue Losing My Existing Hair?

Yes. While transplanted hair is generally permanent, your existing non-transplanted hair may continue to thin over time due to ongoing hereditary hair loss. This is why a personalized long-term treatment plan is important for maintaining natural-looking results.

How Can I Maintain My Results?

  • Follow your surgeon's post-operative instructions.
  • Attend recommended follow-up appointments.
  • Discuss FDA-approved hair loss treatments if appropriate.
  • Maintain a healthy lifestyle and scalp care routine.
  • Seek evaluation if additional hair loss develops in untreated areas.

They give great post op instruction. The patient advisor, Josh, has been knowledgeable, caring, and
easily available to contact. Doctor Josh was very transparent with the procedure plan. I’m now 7 months post op, it’s looking good. Complete results takes about 18 months. I recommend Dr Bolton.

It's been one year since my HT surgery with Dr.Bolton.The result has exceeded my expectations.My hair looks great.I haven't met one person who would think that I ever had anything done with my hair,and actually I have gotten some compliments from different guys whenever we had conversations about hair in gym and other places.Guys usually would say,hey you are very lucky man with your hair you never had any problems with it and when I tell them(not everyone of course)that I had HT,they always are shocked.It's been 12 mo. and Dr.Bolton said I can expect some more growth during next few mo.so I am very happy about it.I already wrote about my experience with surgery,so I want to say again if you want to look in the mirror and not get disgusted with your bald head(because that is all you see,I know) just call Dr.Bolton and he will help you.He really is the BEST in this field.I have met some guys who had HT surgeries done with other doctors and there is NO comparison.Most of them had poor results and the scars on the donor area are easily visible. In my case my wife and my hair dresser only can find that little thin line which I can't even call a scar and they have hard time finding it.To everyone reading that my advice ,DO NOT WAIT any longer,call Dr.Bolton and make your self happy!!!
