The consultation and hair analysis beforehand are free. There we clarify whether the treatment makes sense for you.

A treatment for thinning hair using your own hair follicle tissue.

Three very small tissue samples are taken from behind the ear, processed and introduced with fine injections where the hair is thinning.

Only in simplified terms. Micrografting is sometimes loosely called a stem cell treatment for hair.

In fact, we use your own processed hair follicle tissue, which may contain stem and progenitor cells, among other things. No stem cells are isolated or grown in a laboratory; the tissue is processed and used in the same session.

From your own scalp behind the ear.

Three very small tissue samples with a diameter of 2.5 mm are taken there under local anaesthesia. Only your own tissue is used.

Mainly in the starting material: PRP uses your blood, micrografting your hair follicle tissue.

For PRP, blood is taken and processed into platelet-rich plasma, usually over several sessions. For micrografting, three small tissue samples are taken from behind the ear, usually in a single treatment. Which treatment is the better fit depends on the cause, the stage and the existing hair follicles.

Sampling, processing and injection in one session of about 60 minutes.

Under local anaesthesia, three small skin samples (2.5 mm) are taken from behind the ear. The tissue is processed and introduced into the scalp with around 60 fine injections.

About 60 minutes, from the sampling to the injections.

The treatment is carried out under local anaesthesia. Afterwards you can usually return straight to your daily routine.

The treatment is carried out under local anaesthesia and is usually easy to tolerate.

Afterwards, slight tenderness or redness at the treated areas and behind the ear is possible.

First changes can often become visible after about 4 months.

The individual course can vary. We assess the further progress at the follow-up appointments, with photos and a hair analysis.

That varies from person to person and has not yet been fully researched.

Micrografting can support existing hair follicles, but the cause of hereditary hair loss remains. We assess the progress at the follow-up appointments.

At Swiss Hair Life, micrografting is generally carried out as a single treatment.

Whether a further treatment may make sense later depends on the individual course. We discuss this at the follow-up appointments.

Usually only mild and temporary: redness, slight swelling, tenderness, small bruises or crusts.

Mild discomfort, slight bleeding or a small scar are possible at the sampling site behind the ear. Infection is rare.

As a rule, yes.

Micrografting is a minimally invasive treatment. You can usually go about your normal activities straight afterwards.

For women and men with thinning hair who still have hair follicles of their own.

For bald patches, a hair transplant is usually the more suitable option. With medical causes, a medical assessment comes first.

No.

Micrografting can support existing hair, but does not create new hair follicles on bald areas. There, a hair transplant is the more suitable option.

Yes. Early clinical studies show promising results in hereditary hair loss.

They include a placebo-controlled half-head study and studies with women and men. The studies are mostly small and short, and the evidence is still developing. You will find the references at the bottom of this page.
