Perfect - i Hair Transplant
Perfect – i is an ultra-modern and advanced way to perform an FUE hair transplant. The main difference from the customary FUE hair transplant is the instant implantation of extracted follicles. This saves a lot of hair.
Research has shown that for every hour a hair follicle spends out of the body, there is a 2% loss in volume. The golden period is 6 hours after which hair follicles die. In a typical FUE, hair follicles are out of the body for 4-8 hours. This gives a minimum loss of 8% which may run up to 25-30% if the storage time shoots beyond 6 hours. All this is eliminated in Perfect – i method and you get the best out of your hair transplant. Every hair root is precious and it should be treated that way, Perfect – i ensure that.

Technology Used
In Perfect – i, inverse implantation “feather touch” method of graft implantation is used. In traditional FUE, the graft is held at the root but in Perfect – i, the graft is held from the dead hair while implanting. This ensures ZERO crush damage. The team of Dr. Gaurang Krishna is an expert in executing reverse implantation.
In this advanced method, ultra-sharp punches are used to undervalue tissue damage. Pre slit technique is also used which guarantees proper density, angle and orientation. It also evades the pop-out of grafts during implantation.
Medlinks is one of the best hair transplant clinics/centres in New Delhi, India that provides the Perfect – i technique.

Procedure
- The latest Perfect - i method is extremely precise, advanced and relatively painless and involves damage-free extraction of hair follicles from a permanent zone. Hair follicles are obtained from the rear portion of the scalp, beard or any other area and strategically implanted on the bald areas with the help of the Feather Touch Implant Technique. Precisely within this technique, Hair Follicular units are obtained from the donor area one by one (as in the FUE hair transplant technique) using automated machinery and instruments. Then these hair follicles are immediately implanted in the bald areas within a time duration of 3-5 minutes.
- No follicles are stored unlike within the conventional FUE hair transplant technique or strip hair transplant techniques. In the Perfect - i technique, the storage time is minimal, thereby ensuring zero percent damage. In this technique, special care is taken so that the follicle is not crushed at the root or the bulge area which ensures graft survival and quality. The transection rate is consistently below 2%. In numerous cases, we have even achieved a transection rate of less than 1%. The internationally accepted standard for transection in FUE hair transplant surgeries is up to 10-15%. The experience and expertise of our doctors offer a huge advantage over conventional FUE hair transplant surgeries available at other centers/clinics.
Before Surgery
At the practice of Dr. Gaurang Krishna, we recommend patients follow some basic precautionary measures before undergoing the Perfect – i procedure.
Two Weeks before FUT
- Patients should confirm their appointment with our experts after undergoing various laboratory tests.
- Let our experts know if you are taking any medications, including blood thinners or broad beta-blockers.
- Meet our experts to discuss any ongoing medical conditions.
- Do not shave or cut your hair in the recipient areas. Keep the length of the donor area (back and sides) normal.
One Week before FUT
- Patients should halt consumption of Vitamin B, E or any kinds of multi-vitamins that contain them.
- Stop consuming anti-inflammatory medications (NSAID’s).
- Let our experts know if you’re consuming any other prescription medicines, including heart and blood pressure medications.
- Stop smoking a week prior to the procedure. Cigarettes contain nicotine that constricts blood vessels while decreasing the blood flow to the scalp.
Three Days before FUT
- Stop consuming alcohol beverages as tt can result in adverse reactions and side-effects.
The Day of FUT
- Wash your hair properly with a shampoo. Do not use any kind of gels, sprays or other hair styling products.
- Wear loose and comfortable clothes. Clothing that needs to be pulled on over the head may damage the grafts immediately after the surgery.
- Avoid wearing any cologne, perfumes or deodorants.
- Have a light breakfast. However, do not consume coffee or any caffeine beverage as it may increase bleeding and sensitivity towards medications.
- The surgery uses sedatives and medications that can make you feel drowsy. We advise you to arrange post-op transportation.
After Surgery
While Dr. Gaurang Krishna and his team are experts at performing the Perfect- i procedure and producing desirable results for patients, patients ought to take some post-surgery precautions to guarantee a speedy recovery.
Day of Perfect - i
- We discharge our patients with a head bandage after the procedure. We advise them not to remove it before going to the bed.
- While sleeping, keep your head elevated. In case the donor area oozes, place a towel under your head.
- In case of bleeding, use a sterile gauze to apply continuous and steady pressure on the bleeding area.
A Day after Perfect - i
- Remove the head bandage carefully before taking a shower the next day.
- Take 3 showers and gently shampoo the scalp, in the morning, noon and night respectively. Wash your hair gently to ensure the scalp is free of blood or crust. After 2-3 days, shower twice on a daily basis.
- In case of temporary swelling, use cold compression on forehead, 2 to 3 times a day, for almost 15 minutes.
Precautionary Measures after Perfect - i
Although Perfect – i presents a quick recovery time, patients can expect their newly transplanted hair to grow after 10 weeks. They get long enough to be groomed in about 6 months and fully grown in 1 year after the surgery. However, patients should take the required precautions for ensuring the most promising results.
