💡 Tips for Best Hair Transplant Results in India
- Send photos before travel — front, top, and sides of scalp for accurate graft estimate
- Check surgeon credentials — ensure your surgeon is a qualified dermatologist or plastic surgeon, not a technician
- Realistic expectations — full results take 12-18 months to be visible
- PRP therapy — consider adding PRP sessions to enhance results and speed recovery
- Avoid sun exposure — protect the scalp from sun for 3-6 months after transplant
