A permanent solution to hair loss

Hair transplant surgery moves healthy follicles from a donor area, usually the back and sides of the scalp, to the thinning or balding areas. The transplanted follicles are genetically resistant to the hormone that causes most hair loss, so they continue to grow in their new location permanently.

It is the only hair loss treatment that produces truly permanent results. Everything else manages or slows loss. A transplant restores what has been lost.

At Changes Clinic, Dr Edward Ball of The Maitland Clinic carries out all hair transplant procedures. He is a specialist hair restoration surgeon with extensive experience in the field.

Who it is for

Men with established hair loss

The best candidates have a stable pattern of loss, sufficient donor hair, and realistic expectations about coverage. We assess this thoroughly at your consultation.

Women with diffuse thinning

Female hair loss is less common as a transplant candidate, but it is possible in the right cases. We will assess your pattern and donor availability at consultation.

Patients who have tried other options

Many patients come to us having already tried topical treatments, PRP hair treatment or other approaches. A transplant may be appropriate as the next step, or as a complement to ongoing treatment.

Very happy with my consultation. I got the answers I was hoping for and I will soon be booking myself in for a quick and easy mole/sun spot removal. I now have a new understanding of what the problem is and what has caused it. Thank you.

I’ve suffered with rosacea for several years and have tried all sorts of creams, skincare routines and products, but nothing really made a lasting difference. Looking after my skin and being mindful of my diet definitely helps to keep it under control, but IPL at Changes Clinic has made the biggest difference by far. The redness in my face has reduced so much, and even when I do get a flare up, it’s nowhere near as bad as it used to be because the underlying redness has improved so much. Everyone at Changes Clinic has been friendly, professional and really knowledgeable. They’ve always taken the time to answer any questions and made me feel comfortable throughout the whole process. I’d happily recommend Changes Clinic to anyone who suffers from rosacea and is thinking about IPL. It’s made a huge difference to my skin and has given me so much more confidence.

It’s the first time I’ve done something like this. What a lovely place & people. Very kind, polite & efficient. Very impressed with my procedure, obviously, it hasn’t healed yet, but will definitely be back for more treatment & also considering other treatments too. Well impressed and everything was explained as the treatment was carried out, pleasantly surprised, thank you so much for taking such good care of my skin. Lee B

I had PRP Hair Treatment, with Sumayiah, she is very friendly, she takes the time to explain the procedure and really makes sure to focus on target areas. I have had 2 treatments so far and I already see a difference in my hair density and texture. She can use a gun or syringe, the syringe goes deeper and achieves better results, so its worth asking for the syringe method. I combined my PRP with Calecim serum and that gives an even greater boost. So I recomend you sign up and ask for a booking with Sumaiyah, you'll be very happy that you did..

One of the best decisions I’ve made for my skin! The treatments are effective, safe, and handled by experienced professionals. I struggled with acne for years, and after visiting this clinic, I finally see clear and healthy skin. The staff always follows up after treatments, which shows how much they care about their clients’ progress. Their attention to detail and dedication to customer satisfaction is truly impressive. I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone who wants real results and excellent service.

Lovely relaxed atmosphere with great staff. My lazer hair removal was undertaken by two very capable proffessional young women Kelly and Surmaiyah. Both demonstrate constant care and ensure this not always comfortable experience is as pleasant as possible. The facility is immaculately clean and there is excellent visitor free parking available. I have no hesitation in recommending the clinic to others and whilst I can only comment on the treatments I have received to date I will be availing myself of some of the others services offered.

I am so glad I visited the Changes Clinic today for an upper abdominal ultrasound. I was a nervous wreck as I have a bit of a phobia of scans & Andrea was just brilliant with me. So reassuring, she went above & beyond with careful detailed descriptions, even went over some areas twice just for extra reassurance. I left smiling with a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. I have already recommended to a friend & highly recommend to anyone experiencing symptoms they’d like some extra peace of mind for. Was also really easy to book & communication excellent throughout. Thank you so much!!

I’ve been attending changes for facial hair removal for about 6 months now and I can honestly say it’s been one of the best and easiest experiences for me. Sumaiyah has been amazing through every step. From consultation to our current progress. She shows great professionalism, compassion, consideration -especially when I’m having a bad pain tolerance day- and is very meticulous in which the results are to show for it. Every appointment I get a little nervous and Sumaiyah has always put my nerves at ease and worked at a pace that suits me and my needs. I’m very thankful to work with her and be attending changes clinic. I would recommend their treatment. The staff are very welcoming. Adriana Verrier :) .

She made me feel completely at ease. Such a down-to-earth lady that you can feel genuinely comfortable with. Her prices are so reasonable and very affordable too. I highly recommend Andrea

Chloe was very well informed and helpful. There was probably too much information to absorb in the time span, and more published literature would be helpful (FAQs, prices, offers, medical considerations etc)

Lovely experience! The staff were friendly and helpful. They listened to me about what I wanted and answered all my questions. Naomi was very professional and I was very happy with my consultation. I look forward to returning for my treatment.

Honest expectations

A transplant is not instantaneous. The transplanted hairs shed in the weeks after the procedure, then regrow gradually over several months. Most patients see a clear improvement by six months and the full result at twelve months.

The number of grafts available is finite. Our surgeon plans placement carefully so your available follicles produce the most natural and lasting result possible.

For patients who want to complement or prepare for a transplant, PRP hair treatment can support follicle health before and after surgery. Scalp micropigmentation is an alternative for those who are not suitable candidates.

Common questions

How is a hair transplant carried out?

We use follicular unit extraction (FUE) for all hair transplant procedures in Portsmouth. Individual follicles are harvested from the donor area using a small punch device and implanted into the recipient area. There are no large incisions and no linear scar.

How many grafts will I need?

This depends entirely on the size of the area being treated and the density of your donor supply. Our surgeon assesses this at consultation and gives you a clear, realistic figure.

Is it painful?

We carry out the procedure under local anaesthetic. You will be awake throughout but should feel no pain. Some soreness and tightness in the days after is normal and managed with over-the-counter pain relief.

When can I return to work?

Most patients return to desk-based work within a few days. Physical work or exercise should be avoided for two to three weeks.

Will it look natural?

In experienced hands, yes. The angle, direction and density of implantation all affect how natural the result looks. This is where surgical skill and planning matter most.

Is one session usually enough?

For many patients, yes. Some patients choose a second session later to add density or address new areas of loss that have developed since the first procedure.

What is the difference between a hair transplant and PRP?

PRP hair treatment uses your own plasma to stimulate existing follicles and slow ongoing loss. It does not restore already-lost hair. A transplant physically moves follicles to restore coverage. They serve different purposes and can be used together.
