Frequently Asked Questions
FUE vs FUT—what’s right for me?
FUE offers dot‑size scars and flexibility; FUT can maximize graft yield for some patients. We help you choose based on donor and hairstyle.
How many grafts will I need?
Determined by area size, hair caliber, and density goals. We map this during your consult.
When will new hair grow?
Shedding at weeks 2–4 is normal; visible growth often starts ~3–4 months, with maturation through 12 months.
Will I need medication too?
Medical therapy (e.g., finasteride, minoxidil, low‑level light) helps preserve native hair and protect your investment.
Downtime?
Most return to non‑physical work in 2–5 days; gyms and hats per aftercare instructions.
How Is My Hairline Recreated?
Dr. Jonov recreates your hairline by examining your facial structure and where your hairline used to sit. From there, he will map out a hairline that makes sense for you and is achievable based on the number of grafts he will transplant. The new hairline may not fully match your original, natural hairline, but Dr. Jonov aims for a natural looking and attractive result.
Can Women Benefit From Advanced Hairline Transplant?
Yes, women can absolutely benefit from advanced hairline transplant if experiencing hair loss along the hairline on top of their head. Using a similar process, hair from the back and sides of the head can be transplanted to the areas of loss. Non-surgical options can also be explored depending on the severity of hair loss.
Is Surgery Always Required During Hair Restoration Treatment?
Not necessarily, while it is often the best treatment for restoring hair, it is not always needed. This is best evaluated during a consultation with Dr. Jonov at The Gallery of Cosmetic Surgery.
How Much Is Advance Hairline Transplant In Bellevue?
The exact cost of advanced hairline transplant varies based on the specific treatments used and the number of grafts taken during surgery. After examining your hair restoration needs, Dr. Jonov will provide patients with a personalized price estimate for their treatment.
