Hair transplants are generally considered safe and carry minimal risks when performed by a qualified professional. The results are typically permanent, since the transplanted hair follicles are taken from areas less likely to be affected by hormonal hair loss. The two most commonly recommended techniques are Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) and Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT), with FUE being preferred for its minimally invasive approach, reduced scarring, and faster recovery time.
