Hair transplant patient’s journey

Taking the first step: Your London Hair Transplant Journey at Mittal Hair Clinic
A hair transplant is one of the most significant investments you will ever make in yourself. Which means the questions you have deserve real answers — not brochure copy, not vague reassurances, and certainly not a chatbot.

That's exactly what you'll find below.
Every question on this page is answered by Dr Mani himself, on camera, in his own words. The surgeon who will be sitting across from you at consultation. The surgeon who will be performing your procedure. Watch the videos on him answering questions that matter most — honestly, directly and without the fluff.

From what happens on the day, to flying after surgery, to what's going through his mind when he's designing your hairline — Dr Mani holds nothing back. Patients who watch these videos consistently tell us they walk into their consultation feeling more prepared, more confident and more certain that they've found the right surgeon.

So if you've been sitting on a question — wondering whether to ask, whether it's too small, whether it sounds silly — it's almost certainly answered below. And if it isn't, Dr Mani wants to hear it.

Start watching. Your journey begins here.

Before your procedure, there are a few things worth knowing.whether they should cut their hair beforehand — Dr Mani's answer might surprise you. It's also worth understanding how long the procedure actually takes so you can plan your day properly, and whether you need someone to accompany you — the answer is more nuanced than a simple yes or no.

Once your procedure is complete, the questions don't stop — and neither does Dr Mani's support. Find out what the clinic provides after surgery, how you should sleep in those first critical nights, and whether public transport or driving yourself home is advisable after your procedure.

For those with travel plans, Dr Mani explains when it is safe to fly after a hair transplant — and the science behind his advice is something every patient should understand. There's also practical guidance on how to reduce swelling after your procedure, and crucially, what to do if you have any concerns afterwards — because with Dr Mani, you are never left wondering who to call.
