The Process

Your Hair Transplant — Step by Step

From your first consultation to your final follow-up — here is exactly what to expect.

Step 1

Free Consultation

A thorough scalp and donor-area assessment in our diagnostic room. Family is welcome. We review your medical history, hair loss pattern, and restoration goals — no pressure to book.

Step 2

Procedure Day — Arrival

Anesthesia: 1% Lidocaine + 1:200,000 adrenaline solution for comfort throughout. Entertainment systems available. Complimentary lunch provided during extraction.

Step 3

Extraction

Individual follicles harvested with our <1mm precision tool. Grafts immediately stored in hypothermosol solution at 40°C to maintain viability until implantation.

Step 4

Implantation

Dr. Tawfik uses the DFI Lions Implanter to place each follicle at the exact angle, depth, and direction — ensuring natural growth patterns and seamless density.

Step 5

Post-Op Care

First gentle wash 24 hours after surgery. Recipient area wash begins at day 3. Full aftercare instructions provided. Follow-ups at 2, 6, 9, 12, and 18 months.

Step 6

Your Results

Initial growth visible at 8–12 months. Full, optimal density at 12–18 months. Transplanted follicles are DHT-resistant — your results are permanent.

Patient Comfort

Comfort During Your Procedure

Hair transplant procedures can take several hours. We make sure you’re comfortable throughout — entertainment systems are available during your session, and we provide a complimentary lunch during the extraction phase.

Proven Results

Real Patients. Real Results.

Every result shown is from an actual patient treated at Eternal Hair & Esthetics. From consultation to full results — this is what your hair restoration can look like.

Meet The Team

Meet Our Medical Directors

Every patient at Eternal Hair & Esthetics is treated by a physician-led team. Our medical directors lead two specialist divisions, hair restoration and esthetics, and review every plan personally.

Dr. Tamir Tawfik, MD, Medical Director of Hair Restoration

Dr. Tawfik leads our hair restoration division, specializing in advanced minimally invasive techniques like DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) and DFI (Direct Follicle Implantation) for results that look natural and blend seamlessly with each patient’s features.

Every plan is tailored to the individual, because hair restoration is as much about restoring confidence and sense of self as it is about hair.

Dr. Bader Elder, DO, Medical Director of Esthetics

Dr. Elder leads our esthetic division with deep experience in Botox, dermal fillers, and skin rejuvenation, combining precision and artistry to enhance each patient’s natural beauty.

His patient-first philosophy puts the client’s goals at the center of every treatment, so the result is feeling more confident in your own skin, not someone else’s.
