Long Hair Transplant

A confident hairline shouldn’t require weeks away from work or a drastic change in how you look. At HealthHub Clinics in Dubai, our Long Hair Transplant uses Direct Hair Implantation– a noshave technique, to preserve your hair length while we place follicles with millimetrelevel precision. You leave looking presentable the same day, and your result continues to improve month after month—all with the reassurance of a hospitalgrade care pathway. 

How it differs from conventional methods?

No shaving of the recipient area: Dayone discretion for publicfacing schedules. 

Ontable visualisation: Longer strands show how the hairline truly looks, allowing microadjustments. 

One by one placement: The implanter optimises depth and direction, supporting natural growth and density zoning.  

What is a Long Hair Transplant? 

A long hair transplant is a modern hair restoration procedure that allows you to keep your hair long during surgery. Instead of trimming the scalp short, our team extracts healthy follicles from a donor area and places them directly into the thinning zones with a specialised implanter that controls depth, angle, and direction for each graft. Because your hair length is preserved, you can preview your new hairline and density immediately—a major advantage for patients who value discretion. 

Who benefits from the noshave approach? 

Professionals and publicfacing roles who need to look presentable immediately. 

Women seeking a female hair transplant that preserves parting lines and styling. 

Men and women with earlytomoderate hairline recession or temple thinning. 

Patients wanting refinement after a previous procedure or targeted density in key areas (hairline, temples, part line). 

If you have advanced hair loss or plan a highgraft session, our clinicians may suggest a blended strategy (for example, long hair technique for the hairline and a trimmed approach for larger zones). Your consultation covers all options.

What to expect on procedure day

Consultation & design 
Your surgeon assesses donor density, hair calibre, curl pattern, and scalp health. We agree on a hairline that suits your face and ethnicity, then map the zones to treat. 

Microextraction 
Healthy follicles are harvested one by one under magnification using fine punches that minimise trauma and preserve the donor site’s appearance. 

Direct implantation 
Each graft is loaded into an implanter and placed immediately, with depth, angle, and direction set for lifelike flow. Because hair is long, we can verify softness and layering as we go. 

Review & aftercare 
You see a truetolife preview on the day. We provide a simple, Dubaiaware aftercare plan covering washing, sun exposure, work, and training. 

Typical duration: Smaller hairline cases often take 4–6 hours; larger sessions may run 6–8+ hours or be planned across two days for comfort and precision. 

Recovery & results timeline 

Days 1–3: Mild tightness is common; redness fades quickly. Begin gentle rinsing as advised. 

Days 4–7: Desk work usually resumes. Avoid helmets, heavy sweating, saunas, and steam. 

Weeks 2–6: Some transplanted shafts may shed (a normal cycle phase). Follicles remain in place. 

Months 3–4: Early regrowth appears as fine strands that thicken steadily. 

Months 6–9: Density consolidates; styling becomes effortless. 

Months 9–12+: Final polish—calibre and texture mature into the finished look. 

Because your hair isn’t shaved, recovery is quiet and discreet. Our team remains available for followups and practical styling guidance throughout the first year. 

Safety and quality you can see 

  • Sterile, accredited setting with infectionprevention protocols. 
  • Local anaesthesia for a calm, comfortable experience. 
  • Atraumatic handling and minimal outofbody time to support graft survival. 
  • Photographic tracking at set milestones (immediate postop, 3, 6, and 12 months) so you can see objective progress. 
  • Complications are uncommon with good aftercare. Your surgeon will explain realistic outcomes based on your donor supply and goals. 

Cost and value 

Pricing depends on technique, graft numbers, and complexity (hair calibre, curl, multizone planning). During consultation, we provide a clear plan and, if helpful, a staged approach that protects donor reserves and accommodates your calendar.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Will I need to change my lifestyle after a long hair transplant? 

Most desk roles resume within 12 days. For two weeks, avoid heavy sweating, helmets, and tight headwear. Protect the scalp from Dubai’s midday sun; use shade or a loose hat. Lowimpact activity (walking) is encouraged. Gym, swimming, and contact sports return gradually once cleared.

As with any procedure, minor swelling, temporary redness, or itching can occur. Infection is uncommon in a sterile environment with proper aftercare. Tiny dot marks may be visible in the donor area but fade with time; no linear scar is created. Your suitability and risk profile are reviewed during consultation.

Both methods avoid the long scars of older surgeries and offer quick recovery. During your consultation, our Dubai hair transplant experts will recommend the best approach for your needs to ensure optimal, natural-looking results.

Smaller hairline cases often finish in 4–6 hours; larger sessions may take 6–8+ hours or be split across two days for comfort and precision. You will receive a personalised schedule before booking.

A transplant moves permanent follicles to thinning areas, and these typically keep their robustness for the long term. It is not a cure for the underlying tendency to hair loss, so we plan conservatively and may recommend supportive scalp strategies to protect native hair as biology changes.

You’ll leave with an immediate aesthetic preview because hair length is preserved. Biological regrowth begins around months 3–4 and matures through 9–12 months, when calibre and texture deliver the finished look.
