two more areas
Beard and eyebrow transplants
A hair transplant is not about the scalp alone. Same grafts from the back of the head, the same FUE method — only the area changes.
Beard transplant
FUE method, no cuts or stitches
The donor area at the back of the head supplies the grafts, placed through micro-punctures of about 1 mm with no scars left. Before the operation the doctor and you discuss the shape, taking your facial features into account. Transplanted hair grows for life, and the beard can be trimmed and styled as usual.
The eyebrow shape is drawn by the surgeon at the initial consultation: you review references together and the design takes your facial features into account. Hairs are implanted at the correct angle, so the brows look natural. It also helps where hairs no longer grow after years of plucking.
The doctor looks at your donor area, counts the grafts and shows what result is achievable in your case. The price is named at the consultation and fixed in the contract.

I traveled to City Medical Centre, where they helped me overcome hair loss through a transplant to the balding areas of my scalp. I am grateful to the doctors for performing the procedure painlessly.

I am sharing my experience, because before the operation I went through a pile of reviews myself and was looking for real stories.
I had a beard transplant six months ago. Honestly, in the first days after the procedure I felt a little jittery: my face looked unfamiliar, there was slight swelling and small scabs. In the first couple of months the hair partly fell out, as the doctor had warned.
But now the result truly makes me very happy) From about the 4th month active, even growth began. The transplanted hair took very well, the beard now looks as natural as possible, no bald patches are left. The beard became much thicker and denser, with the shape I had thought about for a long time.
All in all, I recommend the clinic, the doctor was polite and explained everything 👍
The result is definitely worth it!

Frequent questions
We answer what people ask before booking
People often say hair implants, but no artificial hair is used. In a hair transplant the doctor moves your own follicles (grafts) from the donor area to thinning or bald areas using FUE or DHI.
Yes — patients from other cities and countries are welcome, and you can start with a free online consultation.
The base prices are $2,200 (≈ R37,000) (FUE), $2,500 (≈ R42,000) (DHI) and $2,700 (≈ R45,500) (combined). The precise cost is determined at a free consultation and graft count, then fixed in your contract.
The procedure is completed within a single day, after which you head home.
It helps with stable pattern hair loss and a receding hairline when there are enough donor grafts. Some types of alopecia need treatment first; the doctor checks this at the consultation.
The surgery is performed under local anaesthesia, so it's 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.
The number of grafts is assessed for free by the doctor, based on how much donor hair you have.
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.
A lifetime guarantee of hair growth is included, confirmed in your contract.

A patient in Soweto: from a free consultation to the result
For a resident of Soweto the method matters more than the map: FUE and DHI leave no cuts and no stitches, run under local anaesthesia and take one day. Graft survival is 98-100 %, and a price from $2,200 (≈ R37,000) is locked in the contract after a free graft count.
A resident of Soweto can settle the main question from the sofa: the free online consultation shows the doctor your thinning area in photos and produces a graft count. The clinic is on the line 24/7, with no waiting list.
Timeline after surgery: healing 0-10 days, shedding of the transplanted hairs 2-4 weeks and it is normal, growth 3-4 months, density 6-9, final result 12-18. A personal coordinator tracks it all by photo with check-ups at 1, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months, and the contract gives a lifetime growth guarantee.
