The hair restoration techniques of Follicular Unit Transplantation and Follicular Unit Extraction are performed at our Surgical Centre, 2115 Finch Avenue West, Suite 401 location under local anesthesia. Mega Session Hair transplants may take a whole day. The day generally starts at 7:30 a.m., but it goes relatively quickly as patients rest comfortably during the procedure. The patient is either watching TV, a favourite movie, taking a snooze, or in conversation with the staff.

The perceptions that people may have of a hair transplant, where patients leave the office with their heads wrapped in bandages and have significant bleeding and pain, are from the older, plug techniques. In modern follicular unit hair transplantation, hair surgery patients leave the office with only a hat and headband and are able to shower and shampoo their hair the day after hair restoration surgery. After the procedure there is only some discomfort that is treated with oral medications, and there is literally no bleeding.

After the procedure, Dr. Ferreira personally goes over the Post Operative Instructions with each patient and provides a Post Operative Package which includes medications, medical supplies and further instructions. Dr. Ferreira calls the patient the night of the surgical procedure and for two consecutive nights to ensure the patient is resting comfortably and that all of their questions are answered.

We Keep In Touch

Three months after the patient’s transplant, Dr. Ferreira sends follow up letters via mail or email which explain what to expect on the third, sixth, ninth and twelfth month. He also recommends a sixth month follow up visit to see how things are progressing.

At Surehair Medical, we feel it is important to keep in contact with our patients and to assist them in this amazing journey.
