Most Common Questions About MAXIM Hair Restoration in South Pasadena, FL
Here are answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about our South Pasadena hair transplant services:
How do I know if I’m a candidate for a hair transplant?
You’re likely a candidate if you have visible hair thinning, a receding hairline, or bald spots. Your doctor will evaluate your hair loss, scalp laxity, and donor hair supply at your consultation.
What is the cost of a hair transplant in South Pasadena?
Pricing is customized based on graft numbers needed. Smaller sessions start around $4,000, while procedures involving 2,000+ grafts range from $9,000-$15,000.
What type of financing plans are available?
MAXIM offers convenient payment plans, including 0% interest financing with low monthly payments. This makes transplants affordable.
What is the success rate of hair transplants?
When performed by skilled specialists like MAXIM, hair transplants have up to a 98% success rate. Most patients experience excellent hair regrowth and are highly satisfied with their end results.
Is a hair transplant permanent?
Yes, transplanted hair follicles are genetically resistant to the balding process, so the results are permanent. The transplanted hair will grow healthily just like the original hair in the surrounding areas.
Are there age limitations for a hair transplant?
There is no specific age minimum or maximum. However, teens under 18 may not have adequate donor hair supplies yet. For older adults, factors like scalp laxity are evaluated. Good candidates are typically between their 20s and 60s.
How is a hair transplant performed?
It's done under local anesthesia. The surgeon extracts follicles from the donor area individually (FUE) or in a strip (FUT). These follicles are meticulously transplanted into the balding areas for natural-looking coverage.
How long does a hair transplant procedure take?
Session lengths vary based on the number of grafts. Small sessions with 500-1000 grafts usually take 4-6 hours. Larger sessions of 2000+ grafts can take 6-8 hours. Your surgeon will discuss expected timelines.
When can I resume exercise after a transplant?
Light exercise like walking can usually be resumed after 3-5 days. More strenuous exercise should wait at least 2 weeks post-op to allow proper healing. Always check with yourMAXIM surgeon first.
