New undetectable hair transplants let men banish bald spots without even telling their wives

Having a fresh new head of glossy and healthy hair following a hair transplant isn't something you can usually keep quiet about - just ask Wayne Rooney.

However, one clinic has launched a new undetectable hair transplant procedure and has reported an increase in the number of patients keen to keep their implants under wraps. 

Some, they say, are even hiding it from their nearest and dearest.

Hair transplant specialist Dr Kouremada-Zioga, who offers the ‘undetectable’ U-FUE hair transplant technique, says that the vast majority of her patients like to keep their procedure as quiet as possible - and as many as one in 10 even hide it from their wives.

Dr Kouremada-Zioga from The Private Clinic says: 'Until recently, having a hair transplant was not something you could do in secret. 

'An Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) procedure requires the patient to shave their head prior to treatment and the strip surgery leaves a large permanent scar.

'A newly shaved head or a scar on the scalp would of course make it impossible to keep the procedure secret. 

'We have seen some celebrities trying to keep their treatment, quite literally, under their hat until their shaved hair grows back, but the constant wearing of a cap or hat causes questions to be asked too.'

'Developments in treatment methods, and in particular specialist skill sets, now make it possible to perform an FUE procedure without shaving the head before treatment.

'Very few doctors worldwide are able to perform the unshaven FUE procedure because of the levels of skill involved, and I have patients travelling to London from all over the world specifically to receive this form of undetectable hair transplant which is easier for them to keep quiet about.'

She explains that the single hair follicles are extracted with the hair still at its normal length, but then are cut and implanted as just the root.

'Therefore, when a patient leaves the clinic, their hair looks the same as when they entered, apart from some initial redness, which patients can cover up or disguise with their existing hair until it subsides over the next few days,' she adds.
