You need hair transplant.
In your case follicular unit extraction method will be best.
In this method hair is extracted and transplanted in front.
There is no scar on scalp.
You can contact DHI or advance hair studio.
These are leading hair transplant clinics.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you.

Hi,

I have contacted Studio6 for hair transplant, is this clinic good for HT?

Are FUE treatments pain free? They have said that it will be painless but I am skeptical about their response.

Also, do I need to shave off my head before undergoing this treatment and in how many days/months/year, I can expect my hairs to regrow.

Do I need to wear a cap for few days/weeks and for how many days I have to take leave from my office.

Can you also please share the estimated cost of transplanting around 2000-3000 follicles.

Regards
