Hair transplant surgery
Hair transplant: much more than "just putting hair on your head"
Hair transplantation is a medical tool I use to restore density in areas where the follicle is no longer capable of regenerating quality hair on its own. It also allows us to redesign hairline and improve facial harmony in a very natural way.

Nowadays, current techniques allow for very different results than those of years ago. We are no longer talking about those artificial or rigid transplants that everyone recognized. In a quality transplant, we work by implanting follicular units one by one, respecting the direction, density, and natural shape of each person's hair.
For me, a good transplant is one that makes you look better without anyone noticing exactly what has changed. I always speak in the plural, because for transplant surgery, we are a team working meticulously and cooperatively. If you're curious about how it's done, don't miss our video.
I always explain something important during consultations: a transplant does not cure alopecia. Alopecia remains a biological condition of the follicle, and if we don't treat the root of the problem, native hair can continue to weaken over time. That's why at my AB Derma clinic, we never view a transplant as an isolated surgery, but as part of a comprehensive approach to hair health.
My team's approach to hair transplantation is based on 5 fundamental pillars.
A quality hair transplant begins long before the operating room and continues long after the surgery.
01
A correct diagnosis
Not all types of alopecia require a transplant. Some need to be stabilized first, and others can even worsen if surgery is performed without prior medical supervision.
Therefore, before considering a transplant, I study the type of alopecia, the condition of the scalp, the evolution of hair loss, and the quality of the donor hair. Often, combining medical treatments and biostimulation can significantly improve appearance before surgery.
02
A design tailored to each person
Each face, each skull, and each hairline is different. We also have to consider each person's style and the image they want to project. This is the artistic part of the transplant, the one that makes the result superior.
The goal is not simply to "fill in areas," but to create a harmonious, natural, and coherent result that matches each patient's anatomy and expression.
03
Absolute care of the donor area
The donor area is one of the most important aspects of a quality transplant. It's not just about extracting hair, but doing so while respecting density and preventing the area from looking damaged or depleted. It's a key balance, which means not everything goes.
04
The care of each follicular unit
Transplantation is not just about moving follicles from one place to another. The way they are extracted, preserved, and implanted directly influences the survival and quality of the result.
That is why we meticulously care for every detail during surgery: from the handling of the follicular units to the way they are implanted, always striving for the highest possible growth percentage and a very natural aesthetic outcome.
05
Follow-up and aftercare
For me, the transplant doesn't end on the day of the surgery. In fact, that's where a fundamental part of the process begins.
The growth of transplanted hair also depends on the condition of the scalp, inflammation, aftercare, and how the native alopecia evolves. That's why we provide close follow-up and combine medical and biostimulation treatments to ensure the best possible outcome.
Because in the end, it's not just about regrowing hair. It's about helping you feel comfortable with your image again and achieving a natural result that lasts for years.
Female hair transplant
Female Hair Transplant
For a long time, there has been little talk about female hair transplantation. Not because it can't be done, but because in women, it requires a much more precise, medical, and personalized approach.
In my practice, I see many women who come in thinking that "there's no solution" because they've been told that transplantation doesn't work for women, or because they believe it involves shaving their heads completely or ending up with an artificial result. And the reality is very different.
Hair transplantation in women can be an excellent tool when the case is well-selected and integrated into a global treatment for alopecia.
When can a hair transplant help?
I use it mainly to improve areas where medical treatment can no longer achieve sufficient density:
- Receding hairline or frontal line.
- Localized thinning.
- Areas with lower density after years of androgenetic alopecia.
- Sequelae of stabilized alopecias.
But I always explain something important: in women, transplantation should rarely be understood as an isolated surgery. Female hair is influenced by hormones, inflammation, stress, metabolism, ferritin, sleep, and scalp health. Therefore, if we don't treat the underlying cause, the result will never be as good or as stable.
There are women who improve a great deal with just medical treatment and biostimulation. And others for whom transplantation is the tool that allows them to regain the density they were missing to recognize themselves in the mirror again.
