Surgeon-led hair restoration in Edinburgh
Personalised assessment and treatment planning for FUE, DHI and FUT hair transplantation at our Edinburgh city-centre clinic.
Your consultation should assess the cause of hair loss, donor-area strength, treatment goals, graft requirements, medical suitability, costs, recovery and possible future hair loss.
Personalised treatment planning
Hair-transplant surgery should not begin with a fixed graft package. Treatment should follow a clinical assessment of your hair loss, donor area and realistic long-term objectives.
FUE, DHI and FUT use different approaches to donor harvesting or graft placement. No single technique is automatically best for every patient.
Monitoring, medication or PRP may also be discussed where surgery is not currently appropriate or where broader hair-loss management is needed.

Common patient questions
There is no single best method for every patient. FUE, DHI and FUT should be compared according to donor supply, treatment area, graft requirements, scarring preferences and long-term planning.
Cost depends on the treatment area, graft requirements, donor suitability, technique, case complexity and aftercare arrangements.
Donor hair is usually selected from suitable areas at the back and sides of the scalp. The safe donor zone varies between patients.
No. FUE avoids the long linear scar associated with FUT but can leave multiple small circular extraction marks in the donor area.
Some implanted hairs may shed before gradual new growth begins. Timing, density and maturation vary between patients.
Selected women may be suitable after the cause of thinning, donor strength, scalp health and medical history have been assessed.
Selected crown cases may be treated, although crown work can require substantial graft numbers and careful planning around the whorl.
Available payment arrangements and booking terms should be confirmed directly with the clinic before treatment is reserved.
No. Graft survival, growth, density, healing, scarring and final appearance vary between patients.
