A hair transplant is not merely a redistribution of follicles; it is a permanent alteration of your facial aesthetics. The difference between a “pluggy,” unnatural result and a masterpiece lies entirely in the planning. At Liv Hospital, we treat hair transplantation as a fusion of mathematical precision and artistic vision.
Our Hair Transplant Procedure is a full-day experience (typically 6–8 hours) conducted in a sterile hospital operating theater. Unlike clinics that rush through “mega-sessions” with technicians, our process is physician-led, ensuring that every graft is treated as a vital organ. We utilize the Golden Ratio to design hairlines that suit your unique bone structure, ensuring that your new hair looks as natural at age 60 as it does at age 30.
Before a single hair is touched, we must define the blueprint. This happens in the morning, face-to-face with your surgeon.
Once the plan is approved and the consent forms are signed, you enter the preparation phase.
The first stage of surgery involves harvesting the grafts from the donor area (back of the head).
We know patients fear needles. To eliminate this pain, we use a Jet Injector.
This is the most critical artistic step. The surgeon creates the tiny incisions where the new hair will live.
In the past, steel slits were used. At Liv Hospital, we exclusively use Sapphire Blades.
Now, the team places the harvested grafts into the opened channels.

If you choose DHI, Steps 4 and 5 are combined.
The surgery is finished. We clean the donor area and apply a sterile bandage. The recipient area (top) is left open to air-dry.
The first night is crucial. The grafts are not yet “anchored.” If you touch them or rub them against a pillow, they will pop out.
Yes. We typically take a 30-minute break between the Extraction and Channel Opening phases. You can eat, use the restroom, and check your phone. The anesthesia lasts for hours, so you will not feel pain when we resume.
Just raise your hand. You are awake and mobile. We will unhook your monitors and escort you to the restroom. It is very common given the IV fluids you receive.
Yes. DHI is more labor-intensive and requires a larger team (2–3 nurses loading pens constantly) and expensive disposable Choi Pens. It typically costs 20–30% more than Sapphire FUE.
DHI (3,000 grafts): Approx. 8–10 hours. We ask patients to block off the entire day (8:00 AM to 5:00 PM).
Only the back of your head (donor area) will have a white bandage. We cover it with a loose black headband or a special surgical hat provided by the hospital. The top of your head will look red and scabby but will be open to the air.
