Our results are designed using the latest combination of science, technology, and art. The art of an FUE Hair Transplant is not just the technical skill of the equipment or tools, but also the doctor’s natural talent to be able to accurately design the frontal hair line for each patient according to their specific and personal features. A doctor with this ability can create a head of hair with a natural look. This is the difference between a regular hair transplant and a natural, undetectable, superb hair transplant.
Our procedures are done in a single day. In the rare instance that a patient's needs require additional time, a second day may be booked in order to take our time with the design and quality of the implant. At the end, our clinic and patients should be proud of the lifetime of results that follow.
This is a common term referring to FUE Hair Transplant sessions where more than 3000 hair follicles extracted and implanted. The method involves placing a large number of follicles in a single session for maximum density and coverage of the balding areas without the need of performing several separate processes. Remember, it’s not just the number of grafts that counts; it’s the quality, design and placement that will make all the difference in a thick and natural finish.
It is the art of placing follicular units close enough to each other to ensure a natural and good density in a single procedure. This refers to the hairline design without large gaps between each hair follicle. Low-density hair grafting would require a second or third procedure to improve the natural density if not done with high density in the first instance. The number of follicular units placed per square centimetre depends on various factors such as hair characteristics, the quality of the hair bulb, ethnicity, hair colour, hair density, and the balding area to be implanted. The high-density implant is also a great technique to place follicular units close to each other without compromising their growth. The placement angle and the diameter of the means employed influence the outcome.
The transection of hair is the loss of hair when it is removed from the donor area. This results from damage to the follicular units in the donor area during the extraction process. An acceptable level of transection is around 5–7%. The growth rate is the percentage of follicular units that grow once they are placed in the recipient or balding area. The growth of the follicular units implanted in the balding area will be compromised if the follicular unit is not placed correctly, is not properly maintained until the time of implantation, or is damaged during placement. Other external factors that affect the growth rate are the degree of compliance by the patient with the post-operative instructions. Failure to follow post-operative instructions by the patient will affect hair growth. An acceptable growth rate is around 94%–98%. ALVI ARMANI has been selected by patients globally for one reason—our results. The ability to have the highest growth rate in the industry and the lowest transfection rate of any other global FUE hair transplant clinic.
The average healthy human head has approximately 100 000 hairs. The potential number of implants that can be extracted from a person is around 8000 grafts. Based on each patient's unique requirements, plans are designed around the best root based on age, desired result, and other factors, including the quality of donor regions. The best results come from distributing the extraction in the recipient area in a strategic manner to achieve the best results for the patient in the long term.
The scar depends on the extraction method used. With the strip method, scars are left on the back of the head. This does not allow short haircuts as the scar is visibly prominent. With the ARMANI FUE Hair Transplant, the extraction method and technique are far less invasive, ensuring that no scars are visible to the naked eye at any level of hair length. The equipment, methods, tools, and techniques used at ALVI ARMANI are all designed to ensure this.
After the follicles are transplanted, it takes a week for the skin to settle and the surrounding cardiovascular system to realign. The hairs will begin to grow during the first month and then drop out without leaving visible signs of a hair transplant. It is normal for 100% of transplanted hairs to fall during the first month post-procedure as they get used to their new environment. The transplanted follicles go into rest for about 3 months until a new growth cycle resumes. The hairs then start growing normally. Patients can expect to see most of their results start from month 3 and continue to thicken every week over months 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8. On average, 90% of results are visible by month 9, and at this point, the hair cycles would have completely aligned with each other naturally.
No. The FUE hair transplant method is applicable to people of both sexes and all ages. It is said that for young people, there are other methods that may work, but the reality is that beyond the age of the patient, each case has different features, and thus each diagnosis also varies. Remember, too, that hair transplants are not necessary in all cases. Hair transplantation is not about age but about confidence, vision, and, less excitingly, supply and demand. If the supply of grafts from your donor region is enough to meet the demand created by your current expectations and future hair loss, then you are a candidate, irrespective of age. If hair loss is affecting your confidence, we will be there to support you and create a vision to strategize for your current hair loss as well as any future loss to ensure we have sufficient donor supply for any future restoration needed.
The most common follicle extraction method is the strip method, also called FUSS or FIT. This is still practiced, although a high percentage of patients dissatisfied with the results. ALVI ARMANI Clinics, market leaders in the FUE technique, have exclusively adopted the FUE method since 2008 for its effectiveness, practicality, ease for the patient, and above all, for the best results obtained. Based on each patient's unique case, texture, skin, and age, we will adjust technique and tools. Combining art and science for a natural and thick outcome, we take all factors into account when selecting what may be the best option for each patient—be that the ARMANI FUE, treatments, the use of support tools such as Neo Graphs and Sapphire or DTI, and more.
The method of FUE Hair Transplant involves the removal of individual follicular units from the patient's donor area using a special surgical tool. The strip, FUSS (Follicular Unit Strip Surgery), or FIT (Follicular Unit Transplant) methods used by other clinics involve removing a strip of skin from the scalp. It involves using a scalpel, pulling the scalp, and subsequent suturing. The result of this strip method is that it leaves a large horizontal scar in the middle of the back of the head. All ALVI ARMANI clinics worldwide specialize in FUE at all levels and adapt based on patient circumstances to achieve the best possible results.
The FUE method of hair transplantation is minimally invasive, requiring only small incisions and no sutures. This means that after a procedure with us and a few days of rest and relaxation, the naked eye will not be able to see any signs of visible scars.
The FUE Hair Transplant extraction method is characterized by a much faster healing rate than any other method. Healing is by its’ nature unique to each patient; with many patients resuming light office/home-based desk work the same day. We recommend a relaxed 3–5-day post-procedure where desk work is fine.
ALVI ARMANI offers two types of procedures: a regular session where the head is shaved completely and an executive non-shaved session where only a small, non-visible area of the back of the head is shaved. There are two components to a procedure: the extraction of grafts and the implantation of grafts. The non-shaved executive session is more time-intensive due to the added intricacy of extraction and implantation. We can expect the same outcome from both procedures; however, the executive non-shaved procedures tend to have a smaller number of grafts due to the limited area from which to extract grafts. Many businessmen and celebrities in the spotlight opt for an executive non-shaved session as it is easier to conceal the procedure post-operatively. A shaved session is less time-and labour-intensive, can yield more grafts, and is thus relatively more affordable. At the end, the outcomes of each will be the same – The best!
Yes, you will be awake and comfortable at all times. The majority of patients sleep for 60%-70% of their procedure, while others watch TV, listen to music, or use this time to relax. We use local anaesthesia and take every measure to ensure that patients are at ease and feel no pain at all.
Eyebrow transplantation can successfully achieve an increase in both density and coverage. Typically, this is achieved with a single procedure. You are able to return home the same day. The only upkeep for the procedure is the need to trim the hairs once or twice a month.
New technology has made possible a vast improvement in the way older hair transplants appear. Because of the plug-like quality of older hair transplants, a softer fill-in is required to recreate a more natural appearance. With follicular unit grafting, we can create a more natural appearance with just one procedure. This will hide your old plug or doll-head hair transplant.
A hair transplant, when done right, can be so natural that even your hair stylist will not know that you've had it done. The skills and techniques of the hair transplant surgeons vary widely, as do their results. It's important to choose the right procedure and the right clinic to assure that you will get completely natural results. It is also important to do the transplant right the first time and avoid having to undergo a repair where the donor hair is already depleted.
Since the hair follicles that are transplanted to the balding areas are genetically resistant to going bald, they will continue to grow for a lifetime—just as if they had been left in the bald-resistant donor area. We recommend a single PRP session once a year to keep the scalp in good health.
Yes, the FUE Hair Transplant method has the ability to get more follicles when it is no longer possible with the strip technique. This is provided that the donor area still has follicles to extract.

The FUE Hair Transplant method allows the selection of follicles one by one. Choosing the necessary follicles is important based on where they will be placed. The strip method (FUT/FIT/FUSS) does not allow selection of follicles as you get a complete strip of skin with hair, which has a predetermined number of follicular units. It can never really match what is needed for the recipient area.
No. There is no pulling or stretching of the scalp in the Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) method. The strip technique (FUT) has limitations due to the lack of scalp laxity produced by the extraction of sections of skin from the scalp.
Yes, the FUE Hair Transplant method is notable for having a larger donor area - the neck and sides of the head. There is also the possibility of extracting body hair from the chest and legs. The strip extraction method is more limited as it only uses the back of the head as the donor area. It cannot access other areas.
