A hair transplant is a significant financial and emotional investment. It is the only permanent solution to restore a lost hairline. However, there is a crucial medical reality that many clinics fail to explain: Hair transplantation replaces lost hair, but it does not cure hair loss.
At Liv Hospital, we believe in total transparency. While your transplanted hair is genetically resistant to balding and will likely stay with you forever, your native hair (the hair you still had before surgery) is not. Without a proper hair transplant maintenance strategy, the genetic hormone (DHT) that caused your baldness will continue to attack your remaining hair. This can lead to a “halo effect”—where the transplanted front stays thick, but the hair behind it thins out, creating an unnatural gap.
Our post-operative care program is designed to prevent this. We combine clinical therapies like PRP and Stem Cells with FDA-approved medical protocols to ensure your result looks as good in 10 years as it does in 1 year.
To understand maintenance, you must distinguish between the two types of hair on your head:
The Goal of Maintenance: To thicken the transplants (for better density) and freeze the loss of native hair.

Your hair is the last organ to receive nutrients from your body; vital organs (heart, brain) get first priority. If your diet is poor, your hair starves first.

Our Revision Policy:
If, after 12–15 months, the transplanted hair has not grown (and you have followed all post-op instructions), Liv Hospital will perform a Revision Surgery free of charge to replace the failed grafts. This warranty gives you peace of mind that we are partners in your result.
It is highly recommended to continue medication like Finasteride to prevent your native, non-transplanted hair from falling out, which would affect the overall look.
Yes, you can dye your hair, but you must wait until the scalp is completely healed, usually about 4 to 6 weeks after the procedure.
PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) therapy helps stimulate healing and growth; while not mandatory, most surgeons recommend it to enhance the results of the transplant.
If the grafts are harvested correctly by a skilled surgeon, the thinning in the donor area should be visually imperceptible even with short haircuts.
Yes, if you have enough donor hair remaining, you can undergo a second or even third procedure to add density or cover new areas of hair loss.
