The day of the transplant
03Upon your arrival at the center, you will be greeted by a member of our staff who will take you to the admissions office to finalize the last administrative points.
At Racine², each intervention follows a well-thought-out course and fully mastered techniques. Our surgeons and the entire Hairtech team ensure the smooth running of your hair transplant for a flawless process!
Before the transplant
04You will be guided to our hair salon.
Facing the mirror, you validate again the layout of your new implant with your doctor.
The doctor confirms one last time the layout of your future implant by drawing it with precision. He checks again that the planned density perfectly meets your needs. This is also the opportunity for you to definitively validate the next steps.
Then, a hairdresser takes care of you to prepare the donor area.
The nurse takes you to a dedicated and secure rest room where you can change.
Local anesthesia
05The key to a less painful hair transplant
In order to guarantee the least painful hair transplant procedure possible, local anesthesia is performed on both areas: the donor area and the recipient area.
It consists of a gentle infiltration of an anesthetic product that takes effect in just a few minutes. Your comfort and the quality of your experience are always a priority at Racine².
Graft analysis
06Mapping and meticulous examination of the donor area.
Before any extraction, it is very important to analyze the best donor area as precisely as possible. The expert eyes of our doctors and Hair technicians, who can call on the Artas robot, ensure meticulous preparation of the work and optimization of the duration of the procedure.
The extraction must be adapted to the quality of your skin and the type of your hair.
Extraction
07We extract the grafts from the donor area which is healthy from alopecia.
The donor area does not have the baldness gene, the hair that is extracted from it does not risk falling out. The follicular units are extracted uniformly and under the supervision of your surgeon.
The grafts are checked and then stored at low temperature to keep their quality intact while waiting for reimplantation.
Preparing the recipient area
08The incision phase, preliminary to the reimplantation of the extracted follicular grafts, can begin. Promise, it’s still not painful!
For a natural and homogeneous result with your current implantation, the micro-incision phase must be perfectly mastered. The doctor therefore uses a Sapphire blade which allows making incisions of perfect depth and ensures the least possible invasiveness.
Reimplantation
09The long-awaited moment has arrived: your future hair will take the place it deserves!
The incisions made with the utmost care allow perfect orientation of your future hair.
The reimplantation gesture is mastered to perfection to avoid any overhandling of the follicle that could damage it.
Choosing Racine² means receiving the best intervention regardless of the characteristics of your hair.
