"When I first started to lose my hair, it was very painful. Within a couple of years, most of the hair had fallen off the top of my head. Wearing my hat made it a little more comfortable, not seeing myself going bald. I knew somthing had to be done so I tried treatments for 6 months, but my condition didn't change. I then went to Alexis and neverlooked back......" Photos | Video
Can you see or feel the Non-Surgical Single Strand Hair Insertion System?
    Because the hair system is transparent it is not visible. When the hair is parted all you will see is skin. Similar to a contact lens your eye is what is seen, not the lens. If you run your fingers through, all you feel is hair.


How much hair can I expect from a hair replacement system?
    You can expect to achieve the amount of hair you desire. For instance, if your existing hair is of thick density then you can expect the system to look the same. However, if you prefer less density, we can do that, too.

How long does the Non-Surgical Single Strand Hair Insertion Systems last?
    There are a number of factors that determine the life of a hair system:
  1. Your lifestyle. The more active you are the more wear and tear on the hair system.

  2. How you maintain and care for the hair system. The more aggressive you are with the system, the more frequently you will need to replace it.

  3. The type of base used to make the hair system. The thinner bases need to be replaced more frequently.

    4. The average is between 4 months to 1 year.



How much does the Non-Surgical Single Strand Hair Insertion system cost?

A hair system can cost as low as $500.00 per system. The factors that determine the cost are:

  2. The length of the hair. The longer the hair, the more expensive the hair system.

  4. The more hair systems you purchase, the lower the cost.

      Do I have to return to Alexis in order to maintain the Non-Surgical Single Strand Hair Insertion System?
        That depends entirely on you. If you want to maintain it yourself, you can. If you do not want to maintain it, you do not have to. Regardless, Alexis Hair Experts will train you with whichever method you choose. You will attend 2 complimentary learning appointments to understand how to work with your new hair system.

        Do Transplants give you a full head of hair?
          No. Transplants do not make new hair. It is a procedure of moving hair from the back of the head to an area that needs hair. For example, if you originally had 150 000 hairs and over time you lost half your hair 75 000, it would be impossible to move the 75 000 hairs to the area that needed it because then you would have no hair in the back of your head. For this reason, transplants can restore a small area to its original density, or disperse the donor hair over the top of the head to give you a thin look.

          Will I feel pain?
            Our doctor devotes great detail to anesthetizing the donor and recipient areas and virtually no discomfort is experienced. You can choose to take a nap or watch a movie. After the hair transplant surgery is completed you may or may not need pain relief pills over the couple of days.

            How long does the surgical procedure take?
              A typical procedure takes 3-7 hours depending on the session size.

              Will I need to take time off?
                It depends on you and how sensitive you are about how you look and feel after the surgery. Although it is not necessary and some clients are back to work the next day. We recommend going on holidays immediately following the surgery.

                How long will it take for the hair to begin growing?
                  You will start to see results in 10-12 weeks after the procedure. A hair transplant is generally grown in at 10 months.
