Organs that are transplanted from other people’s bodies have some risk of cancer. While hair transplant is absolutely safe.
Myth- This process can lead to brain and eye diseases.
Fact- According to cosmetic surgeons, hair transplant has no effect on the brain. There is a skull and muscles above our brain. At the top there is skin, in which hair transplant is done.

Myth- Hair transplant does not last long.
Fact- Dr. Raman Sharma says that in hair transplant, hair follicle is removed from one place and planted at another. It takes a few months for hair follicles to take root and this is the reason why hair fall occurs for 2-3 months after transplant.

Once the hair follicle takes hold of its root, then new hair comes out thick and strong. Hair transplant can last for a long time.
