Several hair restoration centers have been established in Italy in the last 10 years. Rome, the capital city, and other major metropolises like Milan and Brescia are the best places to look for hair loss solutions. A hair transplant is currently the most popular technique for natural hair growth. There are clinics of some renowned doctors who are serving in this technique for many years at an affordable cost.
Some major reasons why hair transplant has acquired the position of most popular solution for baldness in Italy include :
• Ability of this technique to give naturally growing hair to a bald person.
• Timely innovations in the procedures including the development of the Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) technique acting as a high-effect rendering factor for more and more people are picking this technique as their choice.
• The modern lifestyle and eating unhealthy food which is resulting in hormonal imbalance, stress, and malnutrition which is further causing premature hair loss. High doses of medications and radiation treatment are other factors that make the condition more severe. All these factors further propel the demand for hair transplants.
Italy is ancient land; located in southern Europe on the world map. It is the land of historic places like the world-famous tower of Pisa and the Colosseum to mention a few. Historical heritage, beautiful cities, and coasts make it a top destination for medical tourism. At present Italy holds the position of 8th biggest economy in the world and as per believe it is one of the most expensive countries in Globe. Native Italians visit clinics here for their hair transplant and some choose abroad as well, due to expensive medical treatment in Italy. In the European region Italy is 4th largest market for the procedure after Germany, the UK, France, and followed by Russia, Spain, and Benelux. Here these services are provided by Hospitals, Clinics, and Surgical Centers run by qualified and trained doctors.
Thick, glossy, and high-volume hair is the mark of healthy hair, and everyone desires the same. There may be hundreds of reasons behind the hair loss. When a bunch of hair tears in the comb during combing, it gives fear of hair loss. A fall of 25 to 100 roots is a normal phenomenon, and nothing is to worry about. The occurrence of such hair fall is filled with new ones in a very short span of time. Hair fall during routine work is not a permanent one.
In this technique of hair re-growth, roots called grafts are moved from one place of the body where hair re-development is required. The techniques are categorized into two main techniques follicular unit extraction (FUE) and follicular unit transplantation (FUT). The basic difference in both techniques is the way the grafts are taken from the donor site. And the second difference is the cost. FUT is less expensive and requires shorter surgery time as compared to FUE. Few benefits associated with FUT still drive the segmental development over the analysis period.
There are two most hair transplant techniques that are practiced by doctors here to restore the same. One is FUT (Follicular unit transplantation or strip technique) and the other is FUE (Follicular unit extraction) technique. Both are differentiated on the basis of varying graft harvesting procedures explained as follows:
FUT:In this technique hair transplant is done by removing a thin strip from the donor area to harvest the hair grafts which is then sent to the detachment room for dismemberment. This is done by an expert team of technicians using high-magnification equipment. They separate the grafts and then these grafts are carefully transplanted at the beneficiary site.
FUE:In this technique, the extraction is done by individual follicular units (i, e. grafts) one by one from the donor site having a good density of hair follicles with the help of punch. The extracted follicles are then transplanted at the beneficiary site.
• The hair in the donor site is shaved as per the requirement of the technique.• Local anesthesia is applied under the doctor's supervision on the donor as well as the recipient site.• The hair follicles are then harvested from the donor area. If the technique is FUT then a strip of skin having hair grafts is taken from the back of the head, and if the technique is FUE then one by one hair grafts are extracted by surgical device. The harvesting of grafts is done under higher magnification. In FUT the harvested grafts are separated by dissection of a strip of skin taken from the donor site.
• The implantation site is prepared by the slitting method which is done by taking the hairline designed as a base. Then grafts are inserted in the slits prepared and step by step whole baldness area is covered.
• Post-procedure washing is done after 24 hours by the professional team until then the surgical area is bandaged.
• Patients have to follow post-operative instructions given after the completion of the procedure without fail.
1. After the surgery, your scalp may be very tender. You may need to take pain medications for several days. Your doctor will put bandages on your scalp with advice to put the same for at least a day or two. Antibiotics or anti-inflammatory medicines are prescribed for a few days. The patient can return to work after 2 to 5 days after the procedure.
2. Within 2 to 3 weeks after the surgery, the outer part of transplanted grafts falls out. But one should not worry about anything. Newly growing hair becomes visible in 3 to 4 weeks after the surgery. It takes 6 to 9 months for complete hair growth. One needs to follow the post-surgery instructions.
1. Like other transplants or procedures hair transplants also have some risks including bleeding and infection. If you don’t choose an experienced doctor then there are also chances of scarring and unnatural-looking hair growth.
2. Some people experience inflammation or an infection of the hair follicles. This is called follicular. Antibiotics and compresses provide relief from the problem.
3. If the doctors & team is not experienced then it might be the case that you may not get the desired result and your money and afford may go to waste.
Before you decide on a hair transplant, consult your doctor and talk with your doctor about these risks.
Cost is very important for a person making a decision to choose a hair transplant as an option to cure baldness. Sometimes the cost factor hinders the way to the hair clinic. The average cost in Italy varies from 3000 Euro to 10000 Euro. The techniques and the procedure stay the same globally, but the cost varies due to the economic strength and living cost of the respective country. Surgeons are well-qualified and maintained world-class standards for this procedure in Italy.

Earlier in Italy this technique was limited to men's hair loss treatment only but nowadays more and more women are enquiring and opting for hair transplants to restore hair loss, mainly to fill partition, eyebrow implants, improve receding hairlines and treat thinning of hair.
Among men facial hair transplant is the new trend, to store, reshape or grow the hair a beard, a mustache, or at scars.
Facial Hair Transplantation in Italy
The trend is on the rise of inquiries regarding beard, mustache, and eyebrow transplantation. When these techniques are applied to restore the hair on the face, it is collectively called facial hair transplantation.
Specifically, beard and eyebrow transplantation inquiries in Italy have increased in recent times. Most patients come to the clinic for facial hair restoration due to a genetic lack of full, thick facial hair. Sometimes those patients seek beard and eyebrow transplantation and want to regain hair where hair loss occurred due to scarring, burns, cleft lip repair, etc. Males and in a few cases transgender are choosing this technique of hair transplant to achieve added masculine appearance.
In the case of facial hair restoration, preoperative consultation has the same importance as for baldness. Pre-consultation and planning of the procedure play a very important role in the success of any beard and eyebrow restoration procedure. At the time of consultation, it is expected from patients that they will convey the choice of facial hair appearance he wants to see after the successful.
The driving force behind the popularity of facial hair transplants is the advancement in follicular unit extraction (FUE) techniques. The main advantage of FUE is it doesn’t leave a linear scar at the donor site, unlike traditional FUT surgery.
