Women's Hair Transplant Treatment- All You Need to Know
What Is Female Hair Transplant Treatment?
Female hair transplant treatment is becoming an increasingly popular solution for women experiencing hair thinning or loss. Each year, thousands of women choose advanced FUE or DHI hair restoration techniques to restore fullness and confidence in their natural hair.
At Dr. Ditta Hair Transplants, we understand how deeply personal and emotional hair loss can be. That’s why we take pride in offering high-quality, personalised care. Our clinics have successfully helped countless women regain their natural hair and self-esteem through tailored surgical solutions.
Hair is closely tied to self-image, and for many women, visible thinning can feel overwhelming. That’s why we provide not only expert surgical care but also transparency and support throughout the entire journey—from consultation to aftercare.

How Female Hair Transplants Work
At Dr. Ditta Hair Transplants, we specialise in the most advanced techniques: FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) and DHI (Direct Hair Implantation). These methods are preferred for their natural results, minimal scarring, and fast recovery times.
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) is the most commonly used method for women. It involves extracting individual hair follicles from the donor area—usually at the back or sides of the scalp—and implanting them into thinning areas. The procedure is performed using precision tools, ensuring high graft survival rates and natural hair direction.
DHI, a refined form of FUE, uses a Choi implanter pen to place follicles directly into the scalp without the need for incisions beforehand. It’s especially suitable for achieving high-density results and is ideal for delicate areas like the hairline or parting.
✨ While some clinics still offer FUT (strip surgery), we focus on minimally invasive techniques like FUE and DHI for superior healing, comfort, and cosmetic outcomes.
FUT is the strip surgery and we DONT offer it.
At our clinic, each hairline is carefully designed to match the patient’s facial structure, hair texture, and aesthetic goals—ensuring results that are not only permanent but also beautifully natural.
How Much Does a Female Hair Transplant Cost?
The cost of a female hair transplant largely depends on the size of the thinning area and the number of grafts required for treatment. At Dr. Ditta Hair Transplants, we assess pricing based on the extent of hair loss and estimated graft count, providing a fair and accurate quote tailored to each individual case.
Most of our procedures typically fall within the £3,499 to £ 5,999 price range (up to 3,000 + grafts) This includes consultation, procedure, and aftercare support. For a precise estimate, we recommend booking a free consultation with Dr. Ditta.

Female hair transplant procedure FAQs
At Dr. Ditta Hair Transplants, women can expect excellent, natural-looking results tailored to their hair type and facial structure. Dr. Ditta and his team use advanced techniques and meticulous artistry to ensure every transplant looks seamless and beautiful. Below are answers to common questions about the female hair transplant journey.
Is DHI or FUE a better choice for women?
Both DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) and FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) are highly effective for women, and the best option often depends on your hair type, styling preferences, and desired recovery time.
DHI is popular among women who want unshaven or partially shaved procedures, as it allows precise implantation with minimal disruption to existing hair. It’s ideal for lowering the hairline or treating thinning edges with high accuracy and density.
FUE is also an excellent choice and involves extracting individual follicles without a linear scar, making it a great option if you’re comfortable trimming or shaving the donor area. Many women prefer DHI for its discreet approach, but both methods deliver natural, permanent results.
Does a hair transplant procedure hurt?
The treatment is performed under local anaesthesia, so you’ll feel little to no pain during the procedure. Mild discomfort or tightness in the scalp may occur afterward, but it’s easily managed with over-the-counter pain relief.
When can I expect to see results after surgery?
Most patients begin to see new hair growth between 4 to 6 months after the procedure, with full results appearing around 12 to 18 months. Hair grows gradually, and blending is often helped by trimming existing hair during the early regrowth phase.
Will the transplanted hair look natural?
Absolutely. The follicles used are your own, carefully placed to match your natural hairline, texture, and growth pattern. Once fully grown, the new hair will be indistinguishable from your existing strands.
How long does female hair transplant surgery take?
Surgery time varies depending on the number of grafts needed and the technique used. Most female hair transplant procedures take between 4 to 7 hours.
Both FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) and DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) are commonly used for women. While FUE is known for its precision and minimal invasiveness, DHI offers more control during implantation and can often be performed without shaving the head. Your surgeon will recommend the best option for your hair type and goals.
What should I expect during recovery?
Recovery time typically ranges from a few days to two weeks. You’ll be advised to avoid strenuous activity for at least 7–10 days. With FUE, healing is usually quicker and more comfortable. Most patients feel ready to return to work within a few days, depending on the nature of their job.
