Hair
transplant FUE
The FUE method (Follicular Unit Excision) is currently the newest and most sophisticated hair transplant method in the world.
By taking individual hair follicles (grafts), we eliminate the formation of a linear scar, as was the case after treatments using the older FUT method (strip).
A specially designed tool is used, which allows the follicle to be implanted at the desired angle and in the right direction.
These are key elements for the hair to grow naturally and be arranged naturally after the procedure. Of course, the tool itself does not guarantee a natural look. The doctor’s knowledge and many years of experience allow for such an effect, and the tool makes the work easier and faster.
Implanters, like robots and other “revolutionary” hair extraction machines, are just a tool that in inexperienced hands may not provide the intended results.
Before / after
hair transplant FUE-DHI
Hair transplant procedures at Kierach Medical Clinic are performed by
Dr. Artur Kierach and
Dr. Jakub Szczudlik. The entire procedure, i.e. grafts collection, hairline design and hair grafts implantation is performed entirely by a doctor!
Each of them only does hair transplants, which is why they have performed several thousand procedures.
Around the world especially in Turkey you can find facilities where medical procedures (hair transplant surgery) are performed by people without medical education. It is worth considering whether we would also entrust a nose job or appendectomy to someone without medical education?
Based on this knowledge, attempts were made to transfer this strong hair to places where patients no longer have it, which is most often the front of the head with receding hairlines and the top of the head. And that is why the back of the head and the sides are the so-called donor area, because it “gives” hair.
It is from these areas that the surgeon takes hair follicles. The first transplants consisted of cutting out a hairy part of the skin and sewing it into a place without hair.
A more natural look was achieved only after the invention of the Strip method. The latest method, the least invasive and leaving no visible traces of the procedure, is the FUE hair transplant method. In this case, individual hair follicles are taken, without the use of a scalpel. Hair transplantation is a permanent method of restoring scalp hair. Hair that is taken from the back of the head and the sides is more resistant to loss (note that people who have lost hair still have a lot of it at the back and on the sides of the head). Using this knowledge, we can transfer the “strong” and permanent hair to areas that need thickening or hair restoration.
The follicles are taken one by one with a tool with a diameter of 0.8 – 1.0 mm. This procedure is laborious and time-consuming, but at the same time less invasive than the FUT (strip) procedure, which allows to limit the number of possible complications, shorten the recovery time, and it can be repeated after 6 months from the last procedure.

Establishing expectations from the very beginning is in the interest of both the patient and the doctor. It makes easier to choose the right surgical method and a satisfactory distribution of the harvested follicles.
The main reasons why patients decide to undergo hair transplant surgery are a sense of premature aging due to hair loss and a decrease in self-esteem. Many men do not admit that baldness is a problem for them and is a cause of negative emotions. However, it affects their self-esteem, the way they perceive themselves in society, among friends, family and peers. Premature hair loss can be especially painful for people who feel young at heart, which consequently leads to a feeling of incongruence between their appearance and well-being. Another group of men feel that the lack of hair begins to define them.
That is why many people decide to undergo the popular hair transplant procedure. The patient and the doctor must jointly choose the appropriate method of the procedure, which meets the patient’s expectations and gives the doctor the opportunity to meet those expectations. Patients who have unrealistic expectations regarding the procedure should be presented with real, realistic possibilities of hair thickening. In men, the possibilities are most often limited by the quality of the area from which the hair is taken. If, for example, this area is also thinning, it will be impossible to recreate thick scalp hair. The doctor performing the procedure is limited by the potential of the patient’s donor area.
The course of hair transplant surgery
At the very beginning, the cause of hair loss should be determined and the risk of progression of the process should be assessed. Treatment methods are selected differently for very young people (18+) than for people over thirty. This is a consultation for a medical procedure, so you can be sure that you will be consulted by a doctor.
The consultation can be performed in Warsaw, Wrocław or via an online form. After ruling out other methods, hair transplantation should be considered and the right method should be selected. The initial consultation can also be held online. This is a convenient form of private consultation. Based on the photos sent, I initially assess the scope of the necessary procedure, the quality of the donor area and the approximate price. At the end, I send proposals for comprehensive solutions tailored to your case.
When the patient decides to undergo the procedure, the next step is a visit to the clinic and a thorough assessment of the donor area, and the final version of hair reconstruction is proposed.
The doctor collects a detailed interview and completes the medical history. Laboratory blood tests are ordered, and photographic documentation is made.
Transplantation is a medical procedure performed in an outpatient setting. At Kierach Medical Clinic, the doctor performs the entire procedure, from consultation through collection to implantation of hair follicles.
The FUE method allows for immediate collection of single micrografts from the donor area. Assistants group them depending on the number of hairs in 1 micrograft – usually 1-4 hairs. Find out more in the FUE Method section.
After the procedure, the patient receives detailed post-procedure instructions along with an information card.
Each point is discussed to leave no doubt. Normal activity can be resumed the next day, with the exception of intense physical exercise, which should be avoided for 2 weeks from the day of the procedure.
After hair transplant
What to expect after FUE hair transplant?
The donor and recipient areas will be red.
The donor area will have small red holes where the hair follicles were taken. They will heal within 2-3 days.
Pain after FUE is very rare. If it does occur, mild painkillers usually help.
Do not touch the recipient area the first night.
You should sleep with a small molded pillow so that it does not touch the area where the hair follicles are implanted.
Avoid drinking alcohol the evening after the procedure. It may interact with prescribed medications or those taken during the procedure.
The redness or pink discoloration in the recipient and donor areas will start to fade. There will be some scabs on the scalp that will fall off within 5 days.
Do not touch the transplanted hair follicles.
Light bruising or pink discoloration and crusting may still be visible in the transplant and donor areas. These will gradually fade in the first week after the procedure.
Swelling on the forehead and around the eyes appears on the 2nd or 3rd day after the procedure, reaches its maximum on the 4th day, and then gradually disappears. We usually give medication to reduce the swelling.
Avoid touching, scratching and rubbing the transplanted follicles. They will be stronger after 4 days and then they cannot be pulled out of the skin by accidental touch.
Avoid prolonged exposure to the sun. Sunburn can affect the skin pigmentation and can also damage the transplanted hair.
Recipient Area: The follicles have now fused so tightly to the skin that they cannot be removed by rubbing or pulling. If you still have scabs, you can now wash your hair by rubbing harder to remove them.
Donor Area: By day 7, most patients have no more marks from the procedure in the donor area.
Itching: Slight itching and a slight burning sensation at this stage are signs of healing.
You can leave the shampoo on the transplanted follicles longer (2 to 5 minutes) to make the scabs softer and wash off within 5 days.You can leave the shampoo on the transplanted follicles longer (2 to 5 minutes) to make the scabs softer and wash off within 5 days.
Moisturizing your scalp will help to deal with itching.
The hair follicles enter a resting phase and begin to shed hair shafts.
Some patients may notice pimple-like lesions in the donor and recipient areas. These usually disappear without any intervention.
Don’t panic if you start losing your transplanted hair. Continue washing your hair as before. You can cut your hair into any hairstyle you want.
Avoid exposure to sunlight.
The transplanted hair is starting to grow. The thin, sparse hair will grow longer and thicker over the next few months.
Some patients may experience thinning of existing hair, which we call shock loss – then everything will return to normal.
Treat your scalp and hair normally. Wash as usual.
Avoid prolonged exposure to sunlight.
The newly grown hair becomes more visible, longer and thicker.
We schedule patients for a follow-up visit 6 months after the procedure, when most of the new hair should have grown.
If you are going out in the sun, wear a hat. If you can’t wear a hat, use a sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher for a few months after the treatment.
The transplanted hair continues to grow and becomes thicker and longer, so you can style it any way you like.
Changes in hair texture may begin to be visible; new hair becomes thick and then normal hair begins to grow.
The final result of the hair transplant is visible.
Congratulations on your life-changing transformation. Enjoy your new hair!
Each case is individual and the price depends on the result we want to achieve, which depends on the type of hair, thickness and amount in the follicle.

Front of the head with hairline reconstruction
(around 3.400 – 6.700 €)
