Frequently asked questions
Questions, answered
Honest answers to the questions patients ask most often, from Dr Bonaros.
Most hair loss in men and women is hereditary (known as pattern baldness), though factors like stress, hormones and medical conditions can also play a part. During your consultation, Dr Bonaros assesses the type and stage of your hair loss to identify the cause and the right treatment.
Yes. Dr Bonaros personally carries out every stage of your treatment, from hairline design to graft extraction and placement. It is never delegated to technicians.
Transplanted follicles are taken from areas resistant to hair loss, so the restored hair is permanent and continues to grow naturally for life.
Not everyone is. At your consultation we assess your type and stage of hair loss, donor hair availability, overall health and your expectations, so you receive the safest and most effective plan. If a transplant is not right for you, we will say so.
Most patients return to light activity within a few days. Visible growth typically begins after a few months, with full results developing over 12 to 18 months, supported by full aftercare throughout.
Your consultation with Dr Bonaros covers your medical history, hair loss pattern and donor supply, followed by an honest assessment of whether a transplant is right for you and what results are realistically achievable.
The area is fully numbed with local anaesthetic, so most patients feel only mild pressure during the session. Mild discomfort can follow in the days after, and is well managed with standard pain relief.
It depends on your pattern and stage of loss. Most sessions range from 1,500 to 3,500 grafts, and the exact number is confirmed at your consultation after assessing your donor supply and the area to be covered.
