Hair transplantation offers a natural and lasting answer to thinning and baldness by relocating a person's own loss resistant follicles into the areas where hair has thinned or gone. Because the moved follicles keep the genetic resistance of their original site, the new hair grows for life and the result, when planned well, looks entirely natural. It is a precise day surgery rather than a major operation, but it is still surgery, which is why it is best carried out in a clinical setting by an experienced team. Hair loss is one of the most common reasons people travel for treatment, drawn by experienced surgical teams and the chance to combine the procedure with a short, restful trip.
