A hair transplant takes most of a working day — commonly seven to nine hours for a large session — and you are awake for all of it. Here is the whole day in order, including the two parts that hurt and the one decision you cannot undo.
Most bad results can be improved, but repair is harder than the original surgery and it spends donor hair you cannot get back. The limit is not the surgeon's skill — it is how much donor you have left.

How beard transplant and eyebrow transplant procedures work, who is a good candidate, and what makes results look natural. A realistic guide.
