Do I need a medical check-up before surgery?

Yes. A medical check-up is an essential part of preparing for a hair transplant. While hair transplant surgery is minimally invasive, it still requires your body to be healthy enough to heal well and support successful graft survival. A basic assessment helps identify issues such as high blood pressure, uncontrolled diabetes, anemia, vitamin deficiencies or scalp infections that could affect results. For Afro-textured hair, the health of the scalp and follicles is particularly important due to naturally curved follicles that need careful handling. If necessary, we may request recent blood tests to ensure your safety. Taking this step not only minimizes risks but also helps achieve the most reliable and natural-looking outcome.
