There are people it cannot help

When there is another way forward, the doctor names it at the consultation rather than booking you for surgery, and your money stays put. Just below are the situations where a transplant genuinely works.

A man with thinning hair at a consultation: a case where a hair transplant helps

What surgery can change

  • Androgenetic or diffuse
    alopecia
  • A receding hairline
  • A high hairline
  • Insufficient hair density
  • Genetic side of hair growth
  • Results of an injury or a burn
  • Hair loss post-illness
  • Shedding tied to hormonal imbalance

Which category, though, is yours?

Leave a number. Photos go to a coordinator in a messenger, the doctor answers whether a transplant helps. Free, no booking.

Beard transplant

The FUE method, no incisions used

A surgeon marking the beard line before a transplant at City Medical Centre

Grafts are drawn from the donor area at the back of the head and moved through micro-punctures of about 1 mm, and no scars are left behind. The shape is agreed with the doctor before the operation, taking your facial features into account. Transplanted hair grows for life: trim and style the beard as usual.

Eyebrow transplant

The surgeon draws out the brow at the opening consultation, example photos are weighed up together, and the design keeps to the proportions of your face. Set at the angle of growth, the hairs give a result nobody reads as artificial. Brows that gave up growth after long years of tweezing benefit as well.

City Medical Centre doctors

Yes. People from scattered cities and other countries are taken on without difficulty, and everything can be settled online beforehand.

FUE costs $2,200 (≈ DZD 295,000), DHI costs $2,500 (≈ DZD 335,000), and the combined DHI+FUE method costs $2,700 (≈ DZD 365,000). The exact amount is confirmed at a free consultation after your grafts are counted, and it is fixed in the contract.

Everything is done within a day; no one stays overnight.

Pain is not part of it; local anaesthesia is applied first.

FUE relies on tweezer harvesting with no incisions or stitches. DHI relies on Choi-pen implantation without channels. The combined DHI+FUE approach harvests by FUE and implants by DHI.

Only after the donor zone is measured can the doctor state the number, and that measurement costs nothing.

The first stage is 0–10 days of healing. Shedding at 2–4 weeks is normal. From 3–4 months hair grows again, by 6–9 months density is obvious, and at 12–18 months the result is complete.

The clinic provides a lifetime guarantee on hair growth, stated in the contract.

What the procedure means for someone in Annaba

The two methods available to a patient in Annaba are FUE and DHI. Both leave the skin unbroken by any cut and need no stitching afterwards, both rely on local anaesthesia alone, and both take a single day from beginning to end.

Living in Annaba is no obstacle to a first opinion: the consultation runs online, costs nothing, and ends with the doctor saying whether a transplant helps after seeing photos of the area. Open 24/7.

You heal over 0-10 days. Later on, at 2-4 weeks, the transplanted hairs shed; it is normal and it undoes none of the work already done. Growth begins at 3-4 months, and what grows then is yours to keep.

Hair Transplant in Annaba: price and what is included

Prices are in US dollars; the amount in brackets is an approximate conversion to DZD at the rate of 02.10.2026. The final price is fixed in your contract.

Patient reviews

What patients write after this operation. Reviews are translated from the original language.

Andrey M.

I had the operation a month ago. Before and after surgery they were always in touch and helped with questions about my tests. The operation itself went wonderfully, the staff are polite and masters of their craft, you feel you are in safe hands. I am recovering now, and they answer all my questions. I am happy and I recommend them!

DHI hair transplant

Pavel Sinitsyn

The best clinic of all the ones I was choosing from. No regrets at all! The result is simply amazing, I am thrilled. I recommend it to everyone: these people do great work and make people happy. Once again, a huge thank you to everyone. Roman, the head of the clinic, is the best: he was personally in touch with me and looked after my recovery. Thank you for making my dream come true.

FUE hair transplant

Maria Akopyan

I thought about an eyebrow transplant for a long time and finally went for it. At first I was afraid the result would look unnatural, but when I saw my new eyebrows I was delighted! They came out full and in harmony with my face. I can hardly believe that now I just wash my face and go, I have never felt so free. For anyone tired of constant make-up, a transplant is a real lifesaver!

Eyebrow transplant (FUE)

Alexander M.

I really wanted a thick beard, but I had problems with it. I tried every home remedy and minoxidil, and nothing helped. After a long search for the best clinic I settled on this one. Thank you so much for the service, I liked everything and now I am happy! I had the beard transplant 10 months ago and I am very pleased with the result. By the way, the music in the clinic was great, as far as I remember. A friend of mine has already come to you for a transplant on my advice and was also happy with the result. I wish you every success!

Beard transplant (FUE)

Vladimir Z.

I went to the clinic to see a trichologist and had a hair transplant. I really liked the doctor's approach, and all the recommendations helped. I want to point out that nobody tries to sell you extra services: they tell you things as they are, and if some treatment is not needed, they do not push it. Cosy and clean.

DHI hair transplant

Artem Popov

This may sound obvious, but a head of hair really changes everything in your life. You feel much more confident and go through life like a winner. And it is all thanks to the doctor at this clinic and to the staff who take care of their patients. Many thanks to the clinic for a happy life with new hair, for the comfortable conditions and for the professionalism during the hair transplant.

A Front Line Reclaimed: Hair Transplant Questions From Annaba

In Annaba, home to 464,740 people in the 2019 estimate with an agglomeration nearing a million, two generations ask about hair transplants side by side: a young student at Badji Mokhtar who noticed his forehead receding early, and a man in his forties who watched it retreat for years while he hesitated. Both are right to ask, and the difference between them lies in the timing of the decision, not in owning it, since an early assessment tells each what his scalp allows.

Start with three clear daylight photographs: the forehead from the front, the top of the head at an angle, and the crown from behind, plus two lines on when the shedding began and how fast it moved. The images reach a specialist assessment through the coordinators on Telegram or Telegram at any hour, which reads the donor area's density and decides whether it supports a plan that returns your front line the way you want it.

The dockers of Annaba's port never throw cargo into the hold; they load it piece by piece into calculated positions until it arrives intact. Transplanting follicles is shipping of exactly that kind: unit by unit, at a calculated angle and depth, inside a small area that demands concentration for long hours. Whoever understands this values the long quiet session and chooses a patient hand over a hurried one.

And ask yourself before sending: is my shedding still advancing or has it settled, and does a similar pattern in my family point the expectation somewhere. An early transplant over advancing loss may ask for a second session years later, and knowing that in advance orders both your decision and your calendar. Two honest questions at the start spare two confused years at the end.

One Clinic Day Under Local Anaesthesia

The transplant is done under local anaesthesia that numbs the operating site, so you stay conscious from the first minute to the last while the team works over your head and you read or rest. No general anaesthesia and no night of observation, and that is what distinguishes transplant day from the other surgeries a patient knows. Ask for your session's expected length and the preparation instructions, and write both onto your day sheet before the appointment.

You spend one day at the clinic and return to your home in Annaba the same evening, with no overnight stay and no complicated discharge. Prepare a shirt that opens at the front rather than over the head, a light supper ordered in advance, and a bed arranged from the morning. A long day of sitting passes far faster with a book or a voice list prepared the night before.

The new hairline is drawn on your forehead in pencil and agreed in the mirror before work begins, and you hold the first and the last word on its shape. Ask to see it from conversational distance, not only from mirror distance, because it is a line that will be read from in front of you for years. A surgeon who draws with you grants a confidence that no wall of certificates manufactures.

And leave the clinic with your papers complete: the washing method step by step, the suggested sleeping positions, and a contact channel open around the clock for whatever your first night asks. The printed sheet serves the first week better than the strongest memory, because a patient in his first week reads everything ten times and forgets half each time.

Crusts, Shedding, Growth: a Cycle the Land Knows

In the first ten days the area heals: the small crusts come off gradually, the swelling recedes, and the scalp returns from its busy state to quiet. Washing at the surgeon's rhythm and with his technique, sleeping as he directed, and weekly photographs in the same light keep the record straight. This stage asks for no heroics; it asks for a calm adherence to the printed instructions in your hand.

Then between week two and week four the transplanted hair falls while the follicle remains in place, a law the land of the Seybouse knows well: the field is watered and falls silent for weeks, then greens in one movement. The shedding is the field's silence before its green, not the end of the work. Whoever has read the land's cycle crosses his weeks reassured, and whoever has not mistakes every fallen hair for a final verdict.

From the third to the fourth month the cycle sets off: fine hairs emerge gradually and announce that the follicles have begun their work. Do not compare your third month with a companion transplanted two years ago, for every scalp keeps its own speed, and your monthly photograph is a truer mirror than any comparison. These are the months of silent faith: nobody else sees anything yet, and you alone see the whole beginning.

From the sixth to the ninth month the density becomes visible: the hair thickens, the main volume appears, and the front line stands straight before every eye. This is when family and friends begin asking what you have done, and when the patient finally settles into the certainty that the early shedding was a lawful station in the cycle, never a verdict on his file.

The Final Result Between Month Twelve and Eighteen

The final result forms between the twelfth and the eighteenth month: a settled density and a natural line that has become part of your features. Whoever measured in month six read half the book and closed it, and whoever endured to the year read the last page on time. Your scale is a monthly photograph in the same light and angle, kept in one file that does not wander.

In a city that teaches more than forty thousand students at its university, make yourself a student of your own file: a monthly observation, a single line, and a reading that accumulates. The result does not appear abruptly one day; it slides into existence photograph after photograph, and whoever collected his photographs knows the moment his file turned from monitoring into satisfaction.

And whoever chooses the hand starts from the document: the surgeon's registration number on the official roll of the Councils of the Medical Professions Order, headed by the National Council of the Order of Physicians, the condition of lawful practice in Algeria. Request it in writing, keep it beside the line and density plan, and rank it above the neighbourhood signboard in every ordering of priorities.

And hold the expectation realistic: the transplant redistributes what the donor area's density allows and invents no new hair, which is why the plan is drawn to the measure of resources rather than to the measure of wishes. Whoever grasped this from the first message lived his year and a half of waiting reassured, and whoever flew above the assessment landed from it disappointed.

The first care is run from your home in three words: gentle, clean, shaded. Sleep in the position the surgeon directed for your first nights, wash at his rhythm and with his technique rather than your old bathroom habit, and keep curious fingers away from the young follicles. A freshly transplanted scalp reads a touch the way the soil reads the first rain on a seed.

The coastal climate arranges your timetable: August nights near 20.4C make a gentle evening walk possible, but November brings down 126.2 mm of rain, so let the wide cap and the morning sun become a fixed pair through your first weeks. The humid breezes are friends to moisture and enemies to dust, and a new scalp knows the difference between the two perfectly well.

Light walking starts early: a short loop in a quiet hour toward the central promenade or around the neighbourhood square, with no effort that sweats the scalp in its first week. Saunas, hot baths, and hard training wait for the surgeon's explicit clearance, not as an arbitrary ban but as protection of a result whose whole price was paid on transplant day.

And through both weeks the channel stays open: photographs in the same lighting to the coordinators on Telegram or Telegram at any hour, with guidance arriving before your worries grow. Then begin as we began: an honest file, three clear photographs, and a direct question. A successful transplant starts before the clinic, with a documented message from your home in Annaba.

Is the transplant done under local anaesthesia?

Yes, the operating site is numbed with local anaesthesia and you stay conscious through the whole session, with no general anaesthesia and no hospital night. You return home the same evening, having arranged a front-opening shirt, a light supper, and a bed prepared from the morning.

How long do I stay at the clinic?

One full day, and you leave for home in the evening. The long day of sitting passes with a book or a voice list prepared beforehand, and your papers, washing and sleeping instructions included, leave with you printed rather than spoken.

Why does the transplanted hair fall after weeks?

Between week two and week four the hair falls and the follicle stays, like a field watered that falls silent before greening, and this is the law of the cycle rather than a failure of the transplant. Whoever knows in advance crosses the weeks reassured; whoever is surprised by it mistakes every fallen hair for a final verdict.

When does the new growth begin?

From the third to the fourth month fine hairs emerge and announce the cycle's start, and density builds from the sixth to the ninth month until the line straightens and the volume shows. Every scalp has its own speed, and your monthly photograph is truer than any comparison with a friend.

When is the result complete?

Between the twelfth and the eighteenth month: settled density and a natural line that has joined your features. Whoever measured in month six read half the book and closed it; whoever endured to the year read the last page. Collect your monthly photographs in one file, for they are the scale of the whole road.

Which photographs suffice for the assessment?

Three daylight images: the forehead from the front, the top of the head at an angle, and the crown from behind, plus two lines about when the shedding started and its speed. Send them to the coordinators on Telegram or Telegram at any hour, and the assessment decides whether the donor density supports the plan you want.

Does the transplant have limits I should know?

Yes: it redistributes your existing hair to the measure of the donor area's density and invents no new hair, so the plan is drawn to the measure of resources. Whoever grasped the limits from the first message waited reassured, and whoever flew above the assessment landed disappointed.

How do I confirm the surgeon's registration?

Ask in writing for his registration number on the official roll of the Councils of the Medical Professions Order, headed by the National Council of the Order of Physicians, the condition of practice in Algeria. Keep the number with the line plan in your file, and rank the document above the neighbourhood signboard every time.
