When is the best age for a hair transplant?

- Generally, 25 years to 75 years is the advised age for hair transplant surgery. The early 20s are not recommended as the patient tends to lose hair even after the transplant which looks extremely unnatural as it leaves behind the transplanted strips.
- When the patient is in their 20s then the hair pattern cannot be fully determined. Therefore, it is recommended to undergo a hair transplant after your 30s as it can help in adding density to the preliminary hair which is needed to determine the hair pattern.
- Once you are in your 40s, you have complete or partial hair loss with a well-established cause for it. This will help diagnose and the surgeon can propose the most suitable treatment alternative for you.
- If you want to avoid the recurring procedure of hair transplant, then undergo the surgery at the advised age so that you can sustain a healthy hair growth pattern with your succeeding age.
