A hair transplant works beyond the scalp: same grafts from the back of the head, same FUE method — only the area changes.

Beard transplant

The FUE method, no incisions used

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

The back of the head serves as the donor area: grafts move from there through micro-punctures of about 1 mm and leave no scars. The doctor discusses the shape with you before the operation, taking your facial features into account. Transplanted hair grows for life and the beard is trimmed and styled as usual.

Eyebrow transplant

First comes the drawing, which the surgeon makes at the first consultation: you look at example photos together and your facial proportions shape the curve. Hairs are angled exactly as they should grow, so the brows look natural. It also helps where years of plucking stopped growth.

Standard questions

We tell what people
ask before booking

City Medical Centre doctors

Yes. The clinic accepts people regardless of which city or country they live in, and a remote consultation precedes the decision.

FUE is $2,200 (≈ GHS 25,500), DHI is $2,500 (≈ GHS 29,000), combined DHI+FUE is $2,700 (≈ GHS 31,500). A free consultation with a graft count gives you the exact, contract-fixed price.

Just one day is needed, and you sleep in your own bed.

No. Local anesthesia is administered and the session is painless.

In FUE, grafts are harvested with a tweezer, no cuts or stitches involved. In DHI, a Choi pen implants grafts without opening channels first. The combined method pairs FUE harvesting with DHI implantation.

Nobody can guess it in advance; the doctor counts them at a free appointment based on your donor reserve.

Allow 0–10 days for the skin to close. The 2–4 week shed is expected and passes. Growth comes back at 3–4 months, density builds through 6–9 months, and the finished result stands at 12–18 months.

A lifetime guarantee of hair growth is included, confirmed 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.

FUE hair transplant

All patient reviews

Ashaiman and why people here ask about hair transplants

Ashaiman is a large town and the capital of the Ashaiman Municipal District in the Greater Accra Region of Ghana. According to the 2021 census, the town, along with the district, has a population of 208,060 people. In a community of that size, questions about hair loss, thinning at the temples and patchy beards come up in barbershops, at work and in family conversations, and many people want clear answers before they decide anything.

The people of Ashaiman come from many backgrounds, including Ga-Adangbe, Ga, Guan, Hausa, Fante, Dagomba, Ewe, Ashanti and Akuapem communities. Hair type, density and beard growth differ widely between people, so a plan that suits one person may not suit the next. That is why the first step is always an individual assessment rather than a standard template.

City Medical Centre works with patients from Ashaiman through a free online consultation. You send photos, describe your history and your goals, and a coordinator answers you on Telegram or Telegram. Coordinators are available around the clock (24/7), so you can write after work or on a weekend, whenever it suits you.

How FUE and DHI work

Grafts are taken from the back of the head, the donor area, and moved through micro-punctures of about 1 mm, so nothing scars over. FUE and DHI both rely on this principle: the donor hair is relocated to the thinning area, and the difference lies mainly in how the grafts are placed.

The doctor discusses the shape with you before the operation, taking your facial features into account. For a man in Ashaiman who wants a sharper frontal hair line, or a fuller beard, this conversation matters more than any technical detail. Bring photos of the style you like and be honest about what you expect.

Transplanted hair grows for life: trim and style the beard as usual. That means you can go to your usual barber once the healing stage has passed, and you do not need to treat the new hair differently from the rest.

Climate in Ashaiman and recovery

Ashaiman has a tropical savanna climate, with a wet season and a dry season and hot temperatures year-round. The average annual rainfall ranges from 730 to 790 mm. The wet season usually starts from April to June, while the dry season is from September to November.

Heat is the constant factor in recovery. Strong sun on the scalp, sweat and dust can irritate fresh grafts, so plan the first days at home, in the shade and in a clean environment. Follow the doctor's instructions on headwear: a loose, clean cap or head covering is often discussed, but ask what is suitable for your case and when it can be worn.

In the rainy months the main concern is humidity and crowded public transport, where your head may be touched or bumped. In the dry months the concern is dust and bright sun. Neither season rules out the operation; each simply needs a slightly different routine, and your coordinator can help you build one.

Choosing a season for the operation

Because Ashaiman is hot all year, there is no perfect cool season. Choose a time when you can spend the first days quietly rather than a time when the weather is ideal. The healing stage is 0–10 days, so think about a period when your schedule is lightest.

Some patients prefer the wet season from April to June because the sun is less relentless on days when they must go outside. Others prefer the dry season from September to November because the sky is clearer and plans are easier to keep. Discuss your own timing with the coordinator during the online consultation.

Also consider family and community events. Church services, weddings, naming ceremonies and funerals are important in Ghanaian social life, and many people want to look their best for them. Remember that the early phase includes visible signs of healing, and the shedding of transplanted hair comes later, so avoid scheduling a major event in the first weeks.

Work, study and daily routine

The biggest economic sector in the town is agriculture, followed by manufacturing and services. If your work is outdoors, in the sun and dust, you will need to plan how to protect the scalp during healing. If you work in a workshop or factory, ask about dust, heat and sweat. If you work in services or an office, the main question is how you will explain your appearance in the first days.

Students are part of the town too. Ashaiman Senior High School, the best-known school, offers General Arts, General Science, Agriculture, Business and Visual Arts. Older students and young adults who study or train locally should plan around exams and practical sessions, so that healing does not coincide with a heavy week.

Talk to the surgeon about when you can go back to your usual routine, what to avoid in crowded places, and when sports or heavy physical work can resume. Do not guess; ask for written instructions you can keep on your phone.

The timeline you can expect

Results take time, and it helps to know the stages in advance. The overall picture is: 0–10 days for healing, 2–4 weeks for normal shedding of transplanted hair, 3–4 months for new growth to start, 6–9 months for real density, and 12–18 months for the final result.

In the first 2-4 weeks, the transplanted hairs let go, as expected. This is a normal stage and not a failure, but it can worry people who were not told about it. At 3-4 months the hair comes back, at 6-9 months it looks visibly thicker, and at 12-18 months the look is settled.

One patient described it this way: the result truly made him very happy, with active, even growth beginning from about the 4th month. The transplanted hair took very well, the beard looked as natural as possible, no bald patches were left, and it became much thicker and denser, with the shape he had thought about for a long time. Individual results vary, but this shows how the stages feel in practice.

Follow-up and support from home

We stay with you from pre-op planning to 12 months later. Check-ups at months 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 give you fixed points to compare photos and ask questions. For a patient in Ashaiman, these are online, so you do not need to rearrange your week around them.

A coordinator will be on the phone 24/7. If something worries you on a Sunday evening or in the middle of the night, you can write on Telegram or Telegram and get an answer. Send clear photos in daylight and describe what you see and when it started.

Keep a simple photo diary: the same angle, the same light, once a month. It makes the slow months easier to judge and helps the doctor at each check-up.

Questions Ashaiman patients often bring to the first conversation

People in Ashaiman tend to ask practical questions first. Will the new hair look natural next to my own? Can I keep my usual short cut? Will colleagues, neighbours and relatives notice something in the first days? These are sensible questions, and the free online consultation is the right place to raise them before any decision is made.

A second group of questions is about the beard. Many men have patchy growth on the cheeks or a gap along the jaw and want an even, well-shaped line. The doctor discusses the shape with you before the operation, taking your facial features into account, so describe the beard style you wear every day and send clear photos in daylight.

Another common question is whether the process can be handled entirely from home. Planning, photo review, follow-up and answers to worries all happen remotely. We stay with you from pre-op planning to 12 months later, and a coordinator will be on the phone 24/7.

Sweat, dust and daily hygiene in a hot town

In a place that is hot all year, sweat is part of daily life. During the healing stage of 0–10 days, the treated area should stay clean and calm. Do not scratch it, do not rub it with a towel, and do not apply local remedies or oils that nobody has approved. Ask the surgeon for a written washing routine and keep it on your phone.

Dust from busy roads and building work is another everyday factor in Ashaiman. A short errand is easier to manage than a long day outdoors, so arrange for family or a colleague to handle errands in the early days if possible. Questions about hats, caps and head wraps are best settled with the doctor, since what is suitable depends on the stage of healing.

Crowded minibuses and markets are part of normal routines here. In the first days, avoid situations where your head could be knocked or pressed. After the healing stage, you can return to normal movement in the town step by step, following the doctor's instructions.

Sport, teamwork and physical effort

Football and informal games with friends are a big part of life for many young people in Ashaiman. Before the operation, ask exactly when you can run, play and sweat heavily again. Do not decide this yourself, because the right moment depends on how your scalp is healing.

The same applies to heavy manual work, lifting loads and long hours in direct sun. If your job involves these, tell the coordinator in advance so the plan can include a realistic break from them. A calm first period is more useful than rushing back and having to worry about the grafts.

Teammates and colleagues often notice changes quickly. You do not owe anyone a detailed explanation, but a short, relaxed answer prepared in advance makes the first weeks more comfortable, especially during the stage when transplanted hairs let go, as expected.

Realistic expectations and patience

A hair transplant is a slow process, and the town's busy rhythm can make waiting feel long. The first visible change is shedding in 2–4 weeks, and only at 3–4 months does hair come back. Real density appears at 6–9 months, and the settled look at 12–18 months.

Use the check-ups at months 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 as milestones. Before each one, take photos in the same place and light, and write down your questions. This turns a long wait into a series of clear steps and lets the doctor judge progress properly.

Be honest about your goals. A natural result respects your age, your facial features and the amount of donor hair available. The best plan is the one that still looks right years later, not the one that copies a photo from social media.

Who is a candidate and what to ask

In general terms, a good candidate has enough healthy donor hair at the back of the head and realistic expectations. Some conditions, scalp disease, unstable hair loss or certain general health problems may mean the operation should wait or be reconsidered. Only the doctor can decide this after reviewing your photos and history.

Questions worth asking: how many grafts are planned and why, which method is suggested for your case, how the frontal hair line will be designed, what the donor area will look like, how to wash and protect the scalp in a hot climate, and when you can return to work and sport.

Also ask what happens if the density at the end is not what you hoped for, and how follow-up is organised. Clear answers before the operation are the best sign that the plan is well thought out.

How does the online consultation work from Ashaiman?

It is free. You contact a coordinator on Telegram or Telegram, send photos of the donor and thinning areas, and describe your history and goals. A coordinator is available 24/7, and the doctor then reviews your case and discusses the plan.

Does the hot climate in Ashaiman affect healing?

Heat, sweat, dust and strong sun can irritate fresh grafts, so the first days should be spent in a clean, shaded place. Ask the doctor which headwear is suitable and when you can use it.

When will I see the result?

0–10 days for healing, 2–4 weeks for normal shedding of transplanted hair, 3–4 months for new growth to start, 6–9 months for real density, and 12–18 months for the final result.

Is shedding after the operation normal?

Yes. In the first 2-4 weeks the transplanted hairs let go, as expected. New hair comes back at 3-4 months.

Will there be scars on the donor area?

Grafts are taken from the back of the head and moved through micro-punctures of about 1 mm, so nothing scars over. The doctor will explain what to expect in your case.

Can the method be used for a beard?

Yes, FUE and DHI are used for beards as well. Transplanted hair grows for life, so you can trim and style the beard as usual.

Which season is better in Ashaiman?

There is no perfect season because the town is hot year-round. The wet season usually runs from April to June and the dry season from September to November. Choose a period when your schedule is light and no major event falls in the first weeks.

How long does follow-up last?

We stay with you from pre-op planning to 12 months later, with check-ups at months 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12.

Who decides the shape of the hair line?

The doctor discusses the shape with you before the operation, taking your facial features into account. Bring photos of styles you like.

Can I do the whole process from Ashaiman without leaving my daily routine?

Planning, photo review and follow-up are done online. We stay with you from pre-op planning to 12 months later, with check-ups at months 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12, and a coordinator will be on the phone 24/7.

What should I send for the first review?

Send clear photos in daylight of the front, the top, the sides and the back of the head, or of the beard area. Add a short description of your history and what you want to change.

When will my beard or hair look settled?

The settled look comes at 12–18 months after surgery. New growth starts at 3–4 months, and real density appears at 6–9 months.
