Hair transplant surgery is a widely-used option for managing hair loss. However, there are also non-surgical treatments available for those exploring alternatives. These options include:
Welcome to Ashbrooke Cosmetic Clinic
Micrografts are available as single grafts or small groupings of two, three, four, or five hair follicles. These grafts are small and precise, typically measuring 0.5mm to 1mm across. Minigrafts, on the other hand, are slightly larger than micrografts, containing three to six hair follicles and measuring around 1 to 2 mm across.
Â
Hair transplant procedures that use both micrografts and minigrafts offer an effective approach to addressing hair loss. Each procedure is independent and delivers a seamless result, particularly where micrografting is applied. Additional procedures may be considered to enhance hair density as per individual requirements.
Â
In some cases, a single procedure may achieve a satisfactory outcome for the patient. A single session may involve between 500 and 2000 grafts, depending on the desired density and the patient’s hair characteristics. Many patients, however, opt for greater density, which can require two or three additional procedures. If a patient requires a total of 4000 grafts or more, a comprehensive hair restoration plan can be developed that may include multiple sessions.
As with any surgical procedure, hair transplant surgery involves certain risks and considerations. Potential risks include infection, scarring, and, in some cases, an uneven or less-than-desired appearance. Patients may experience some pain, swelling, or discomfort in the treated area following surgery. It’s also important to note that results can vary depending on individual health conditions, skin type, and hair characteristics.
Â
Non-surgical treatments, such as Minoxidil and Finasteride, may carry their own side effects, including scalp irritation, changes in hair texture, and, for some, skin reactions. We recommend discussing all available options, including risks and benefits, with a qualified medical professional to determine the best course of action based on individual health needs.

Applied directly to the scalp to help manage hair thinning.

A surgical option to reduce the size of a bald area on the scalp.
The Breast Reduction procedure generally includes the following steps:
During the consultation, our doctor will discuss your treatment goals and provide information about the procedure, ensuring your plan aligns with realistic expectations.
A brief outline of the procedure involves the following: The careful removal of excess breast tissue, fat, and skin is undertaken. Once removed, reshaping and lifting the breast is completed. Throughout, sterile techniques and monitoring help reduce risks.
Post-procedure care is provided to support comfort during recovery. Patients can expect a gradual return to normal activities. Follow-up care is scheduled to monitor progress.
Noticeable improvement in physical symptoms and breast shape occurs within weeks of the procedure.
The cost for Micrografts and Minigrafts may vary depending on individual treatment requirements. During your consultation, we provide a tailored quotation and discuss potential financing options.
