Understanding Hair Loss

Approximately:


  • 20% of men in their 20s
  • 30% of men in their 30s
  • 40% of men in their 40s


experience noticeable hair loss. Overall, two-thirds of men will face some degree of thinning during their lifetime.


The most common cause is androgenetic alopecia (male pattern baldness). Women also experience hair thinning, though female pattern hair loss may present differently and can be influenced by hormonal or medical factors.


While medications and non-surgical treatments may slow progression, surgical hair transplantation offers the most reliable long-term solution.

What is a Hair Transplant?

Modern hair transplantation involves relocating healthy hair follicles from areas of permanent growth (typically the back and sides of the scalp) to thinning or balding areas.


These transplanted follicles:


  • Continue to grow naturally
  • Can be cut and styled normally
  • Blend seamlessly with existing hair
  • Provide permanent restoration


When designed and placed properly, the results are almost impossible to distinguish from native hair.

Hair Transplant Techniques in Mobile, Alabama

Dr. Henry Barber performs both advanced hair transplant techniques:

Follicular Unit Transplant (FUT)

FUT, often referred to as the strip method, allows a large number of grafts to be harvested in a single session. This technique may be appropriate for patients requiring extensive coverage.


During your consultation, Dr. Barber will determine which method is best suited to your hair loss pattern and goals.

Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE)

FUE removes individual follicular units directly from the scalp and transplants them to thinning areas. Benefits include:


  • No linear scar
  • Minimal downtime
  • Less post-operative discomfort
  • Ideal for short hairstyles

What to Expect During the Procedure

A hair transplant procedure typically lasts 5–7 hours, depending on graft count.


  • Performed under local anesthesia
  • No general anesthesia required
  • Relaxed environment (music, movies, breaks allowed)
  • Same-day discharge


After the procedure:


  • Mild scalp soreness may occur
  • Most patients return to work in 2–3 days
  • Small scabs resolve within days
  • Initial shedding occurs before new growth begins


New growth typically begins around 3–4 months, with full cosmetic results visible around 12 months.
