A hair transplant is usually performed in a clinic and is done by specially trained doctors and surgeons. A machine is responsible for the hair implants. First, the doctors may inject lidocaine into the scalp, or if you want it to be more painless, you can choose to be sedated before the treatment. The machine will automatically implant five or more strands of hair at a time until the whole area of scalp to be treated is full.
After the treatment, the patient is not allowed to wet his head for several days. This allows the wounds to heal and effectively hold the hair that is implanted in the scalp.
