Your WAW FUE Hair Restoration experience
Consultation
During your initial consultation, Dr. Colgrove will assess your hair condition, discuss your hair loss pattern, and listen to your personal goals. He will explain the WAW FUE technique and how it can best address your specific needs. This is your opportunity to ask any questions and fully understand the process. Dr. Colgrove will then create a customized treatment plan tailored to achieve the most satisfactory and sustainable results for you.
Surgery
The surgical team will begin by numbing the donor and recipient areas with local anesthesia. Using the specialized WAW FUE device, the surgical team will carefully extract individual hair follicles from the donor area. The trumpet-shaped punch of the device allows for precise extraction with minimal trauma. These healthy follicles are then implanted into the thinning or balding areas according to your treatment plan. The entire procedure typically takes several hours.
Recovery
After your surgery, you can expect some mild swelling and redness in the treated areas, which should subside within a few days. The small incisions will heal quickly, and there is minimal scarring. You will be able to return to your daily activities within a few days, though Dr. Colgrove may advise avoiding strenuous activities for a short period. Any discomfort is usually mild and can be managed with over-the-counter pain medications.
Results
Your new hair will begin to grow naturally over the following months. While initial growth can be seen within three months, the most noticeable results will appear around 6 to 12 months after the procedure. The results are long-lasting, providing you with a fuller, natural-looking head of hair that enhances your confidence and appearance.
