Complications relating to surgical hair restoration are quite rare, as the procedure involves little risk and is considered exceptionally safe. Adherence to the instructions of the doctor following the procedure will help to ensure that there are no issues relating to infection, and some patients may experience some swelling or numbness that subsides shortly after the procedure.
Beyond that, patients sometimes experience ingrown hair follicles, but this is an issue that will resolve itself entirely on its own and is hardly anything to worry about. It is therefore the case that any potential complications are not very serious and rarely occur in patients undergoing surgical hair restoration.
