I’m an early riser! I think you have to be with this job. I get up at the latest by 6am, leave the house by 6:45am and start seeing my hair transplant patient as early as 7:30am. My days are different to most other people who work in aesthetics, as I will only work with one patient per day. Once they’ve arrived, I’ll prepare them for the transplant before going into the operating room. Then I proceed to give the patient the local anaesthetic injections, followed by removal or harvesting of the donor hairs. When this is done, I go to the recipient area and create the slits or holes in the scalp that will each receive an individual hair graft. The technical assistants then continue with the work and will place the grafts into the sites (cuts) I pre-created. I’ll continue to be involved in the procedure as I’ll be getting updates from the team throughout and I go in to check on the patient…
