Thoughtful Hair Restoration That Supports Identity

At The Standard of Modern Aesthetics (SOMA), hair grafting is approached as both a technical and personal process. The goal is not just to restore hair, but to create a hairline and pattern that feels natural, balanced, and aligned with your appearance. Each treatment is carefully designed to reflect your goals while maintaining long-term consistency. Schedule your consultation with SOMA to explore a personalized approach to hair grafting.

What Is Hair Grafting?

Hair grafting is a surgical procedure that involves transferring healthy hair follicles from one area of the scalp to areas experiencing thinning or hair loss. These follicles continue to grow naturally after they are placed.

This procedure can be used to restore density, reshape the hairline, or fill in areas of thinning. At SOMA, hair grafting is often part of a broader plan to create a cohesive and natural-looking result that complements your facial features.

Hairline Design and Personalization

Hair grafting is not only about density—it is also about shape, placement, and long-term appearance.

Hairline Shape

The design of the hairline is carefully planned to align with your goals. This may involve softening, lowering, or reshaping the hairline to create a more balanced and natural look.

Density and Distribution

Hair is placed in a way that mimics natural growth patterns, ensuring that the result looks consistent across different areas of the scalp.

Long-Term Planning

Because hair loss patterns can change over time, planning takes into account both current needs and future considerations to maintain balance.

Your Consultation

Your consultation at SOMA is designed to be detailed, respectful, and individualized. You will meet with a qualified provider who will evaluate your hair pattern, scalp health, and donor area. This includes discussing your goals, expectations, and how hair grafting can support your overall treatment plan. The consultation also focuses on designing a hairline and density pattern that feels appropriate and aligned with your identity.

Who Is a Good Candidate for Hair Grafting?

Hair grafting is ideal for individuals who have sufficient donor hair and are looking to restore or reshape their hair. Candidates are typically in good overall health and have realistic expectations about the outcome. Those seeking a natural, long-term solution rather than temporary improvement often benefit most from this procedure. Patients looking for a personalized approach that considers both aesthetics and long-term results are strong candidates.

What to Expect During Your Procedure

Hair grafting is typically performed under local anesthesia as an outpatient procedure.

Follicle Harvesting

Healthy hair follicles are carefully extracted from a donor area, usually at the back or sides of the scalp.

Graft Preparation

The follicles are prepared to ensure viability and optimal growth after placement.

Strategic Placement

Each graft is placed individually, following natural growth patterns and angles to create a seamless and natural result.

Hair Grafting Recovery

Recovery after hair grafting is generally straightforward, with most patients returning to normal activities within a few days. In the initial phase, mild swelling, redness, and sensitivity in the treated areas are common. Small scabs may form around the grafts and typically resolve within about a week.

Hair Growth Timeline

It is normal for transplanted hair to shed early in the process. New growth typically begins within a few months, with continued improvement over time. Final results develop gradually, often becoming more noticeable between several months and one year after the procedure.

A Personalized and Integrated Approach

Hair grafting is most effective when it is planned as part of a broader approach to appearance and long-term goals. At SOMA, each treatment is designed to integrate with your overall plan, ensuring that the results feel consistent and natural. This includes careful attention to hairline design, density, and future changes. This level of planning helps create results that remain balanced over time.

Providers carefully evaluate each case to ensure that treatment plans are tailored to individual hair patterns, goals, and future considerations.
