We pride ourselves on minimizing discomfort. We incorporate many different techniques to make your experience as enjoyable and rewarding as possible.
At AZ Hair Restoration our hair transplantation technique has relatively little discomfort. The vast majority of our patients tell us that there was much less discomfort than anticipated. You will be napping or watching movies of your choosing most of the procedure and break for a delicious lunch provided by us. Many patients comment that the experience feels like a relaxing day off.
If you wish, nitrous oxide (laughing gas) is available at no additional cost. Nitrous Oxide provides a feeling of comfort and relaxation. These techniques used allow the patient to have a very relaxed session, while they watch movies or listen to their favorite music. Many patients nap through much of the procedure. There are only a few minutes during scalp injections where very mild discomfort may be experienced. However, we simultaneously incorporate specialized techniques to greatly minimize discomfort.
On the day after the procedure, the patient will return to AZ Hair Restoration. The dressing will be removed and your hair washed. Dr. Zacco will personally check your incision and grafts to make sure all is well. Pain medication is usually not needed after one or two days following the hair transplantation. Most folks can easily return to their usual routine within 2-3 days after the procedure. However it is recommended that you refrain from exercise or strenuous physical activity for 72 hours.
