FUE Hair Transplantation

MEDICent performs FUE (follicular unit extraction) hair transplantation with fully transparent per-hair pricing — 30–35 Kč per transplanted hair — so the cost scales exactly with the size of your restoration rather than opaque package tiers. Individual follicular units are harvested from the permanent donor zone at the back of the head and implanted into thinning areas, where they continue growing for life. Performed in a plastic surgery clinic under the supervision of doc. MUDr. Tomáš Kempný, Ph.D.

FUE hair transplantation works because of a quirk of male-pattern hair loss: the follicles at the back and sides of the head are genetically resistant to the hormone (DHT) that miniaturises hair on the crown and hairline. Moved to a thinning area, they keep their resistance — and keep growing permanently. **The method:** Under local anaesthesia, individual follicular units (each carrying 1–3 hairs) are extracted from the donor zone with a fine punch — no scalpel strip, no linear scar — leaving only dot marks that are invisible once hair regrows over them. The units are sorted and preserved, then implanted into pre-made micro-incisions in the recipient area, with the angle and direction of each implantation matched to natural growth patterns. Hairline design — the artistic component — determines whether the result reads as natural; surgical-clinic oversight matters here. **Transparent pricing:** At 30–35 Kč per hair, a modest hairline refinement of ~1,000 hairs runs around 30,000–35,000 Kč, while a larger crown-and-hairline restoration of 2,500 hairs is priced proportionally. The consultation maps your loss pattern, assesses donor capacity, and quotes a precise number. **Timeline of results:** Transplanted hairs typically shed in weeks 2–4 (normal — the follicle remains), enter a resting phase, then begin regrowth at months 3–4. Visible density builds from month 6, with the full result at 12 months. **Session and recovery:** A session lasts several hours depending on graft count. Small crusts in the recipient area clear within 7–10 days; most patients return to work within days. Strenuous exercise and helmet-wearing wait 2 weeks. **Candidates:** Stable or medically managed hair loss with adequate donor density. Ongoing rapid loss is better stabilised first — the consultation addresses this honestly.
