What is a Revision Hair Transplant?
For many individuals, hair loss is a significant concern that affects not only their appearance but also their self-esteem, even career growth. Recognizing this, hair transplantation has become a widely sought-after solution, offering a path to renewed confidence and hair growth. Unfortunately, some people’s expectations are not met by their first hair transplant surgery, leading to dissatisfaction. For other patients, their concerns may come from a need to improve on the results of a transplant that has regressed over time. In such cases, a Revision Hair Transplant is a means of treating their concerns, taking especially into consideration the previous transplant surgery.
Hair transplant surgery at Maxwell offers solutions for male pattern baldness and hair thinning. Utilizing state-of-the-art techniques, Maxwell provides personalized treatments that yield natural-looking results.

كيف تُجرى زراعة الشعر التصحيحية؟
The method used at Maxwell for revision surgery is called the ‘punch and place’ method. This technique involves using an FUE punch to extract previously placed grafts and then replacing them with new grafts harvested from the donor area. Due to the small size of the residual holes, the doctor is able to remove a large amount of grafts without any noticeable scarring. The healing time of the grafted hair is usually quite rapid.

Follicle Extraction – Our Team’s Process
Precision in Follicle Handling
Every step, from the extraction of hair follicles from the donor area to their placement in the recipient site, is performed with utmost precision. Special attention is paid to maintaining the integrity of the follicle during extraction and implantation, minimizing any trauma that could affect survival.
Advanced Extraction Tools
Utilizing state-of-the-art extraction tools that allow for a minimally invasive procedure helps maintain the health of the follicles. These tools are designed to reduce transection rates, ensuring more hair grafts remain viable for transplantation.
Optimized Conditions for Grafts
Between extraction and implantation, grafts are kept in a carefully controlled environment to preserve their vitality. This includes maintaining the correct temperature and hydration levels to prevent desiccation or damage.
Speed and Efficiency
Recognizing that time out of the scalp can negatively impact follicle survival, Maxwell’s procedures are optimized for speed without compromising on quality. The time from extraction to implantation is minimized to keep the grafts viable.
Careful Implantation
The technique used for implanting the grafts ensures that they are placed at the correct depth and angle in the scalp. This precision supports optimal regrowth, as it mirrors the natural growth direction and depth of hair, fostering a better integration with the scalp.
Post-Operative Care and Monitoring
Maxwell provides comprehensive post-operative care instructions and ongoing monitoring. This includes guidance on washing, activity levels, and medications to support follicle health, as well as follow-up appointments to assess the progress of transplant growth.
Hair Transplant Recovery Timeline
Before Hair Transplant
9 Days After Hair Transplant
5 Months After hair transplant
9 months after hair transplant
Day 1 – 30
You may feel pain for the first week as the scalp needs time to heal. You will see scabbing in two locations on the scalp: the donor area and the recipient area. These scabs are small, so they heal quickly. The day after the surgery, we will provide post-operative care, including removing the bandages from the donor area, disinfection dressing, shampoo service and laser treatment for the maximum viability. We recommend using antibiotic spray for 3 days. Most of our patients fly back to their home country the day after the shampoo service. If you need to have stitches removed, our surgeons may use dissolvable stitches or provide medical documentation so that you can have the remaining stitches removed in your home country. In that case, you can fly the day after the surgery.
Month 1 – 3
70-80% of the transplanted hair, along with some original hairs, will fall out during this period. However, please do not worry, as this is normal during the recovery process. After 3 to 5 months, the hair will begin to grow normally. If you experience any discomfort during the recovery process, you can contact us at any time, and we will provide assistance even after the procedure. If you are living in Korea, you can also visit our clinic regularly for check-ups during this period.
Month 3 – 6
This is the period when patients worry the most because the hair goes through shock loss. However, it is also the time when new hair starts to grow slowly, typically at a rate of about 1 cm per month. Please do not worry, as it takes a bit more time before it starts to resemble the desired result.
Month 6 – 12
Hair will actively grow in the recipient area, and with hair loss treatment, the number of hairs and their thickness can even improve during this period. The hair will gain in thickness & length, and may also change in character. It generally takes one year to see the full results of a hair transplant. We recommend having a 1-year follow up with your surgeon, as this is usually the time you can expect a full result.
* Recovery timeline and results will vary by person. This timeline is an average of the standard hair transplant experience, and should be read simply as a guideline.

تهدف جراحة زراعة الشعر التصحيحية في عيادة ماكسويل لزراعة الشعر إلى معالجة النتائج غير المرضية الناتجة عن إجراءات سابقة، أو تحسين عمليات الزراعة القديمة التي تراجعت نتائجها مع مرور الوقت. ويشمل ذلك الحالات التي أُجريت فيها العملية الأولى بشكل غير جيد بسبب نقص المهارة أو الخبرة، أو عند استخدام أساليب قديمة، أو عندما تكون النتائج غير طبيعية، وكذلك عندما يرغب المرضى في زيادة كثافة الشعر بعد عملية أولى كانت نتائجها مُرضية.
ما الطريقة التي تعتمدها عيادة ماكسويل لزراعة الشعر في الجراحة التصحيحية؟
