Hair Transplant: Is the Hair Permanent? How Ayurveda Can Help Manage Transplanted Hair

A hair transplant is a widely chosen solution for hair loss, offering natural-looking hair restoration. However, many people wonder, “Is transplanted hair permanent?” While the transplanted follicles are genetically resistant to hair fall, maintaining their health, strength, and longevity is essential. This is where Ayurveda plays a vital role in scalp nourishment, follicle protection, and hair rejuvenation.

At EliteAyurveda, under the guidance of Dr. Adil Moulanchikkal, we provide personalized Ayurvedic post-transplant care that ensures healthy, long-lasting hair growth by addressing scalp health, blood circulation, and Dosha balance.

📖 Understanding the Longevity of Transplanted Hair

Hair transplanted from the donor area (usually the back of the scalp) is genetically resistant to hair loss caused by Dihydrotestosterone (DHT). However, several factors influence how long the transplanted hair lasts, such as:

✔️ Scalp health & blood circulation
✔️ Nutritional support for follicles
✔️ Hormonal balance & stress levels
✔️ Proper post-transplant care & hair routine

“Kesho hi Prakriti Dosha Samyuktah”
(Hair health is directly connected to Dosha balance & body constitution.)
— Charaka Samhita
