How do Beverly Hills Hair Transplant Treatments Work?
When it comes to hair restoration, there are two highly regarded and effective techniques that have been trusted by surgeons for many years. Both involve extracting hair follicles from a donor area on the back of your scalp to restore lost hair in thinning or bald areas.
The first technique is Follicular Unit Transplant (FUT), which involves removing a strip of tissue from the scalp and harvesting hair follicles from it. The second, and more recent method, is Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE). This technique extracts individual follicles from areas of the scalp with healthy hair and carefully places them into the bald spots. Both methods utilize grafting to implant the follicles, resulting in a highly natural look.
The best part? Your new hairline will look so natural that no one will know you’ve had a transplant—unless you decide to reveal the secret!
What Causes Hair Loss?
Hairline recession in Beverly Hills can be influenced by a multitude of contributing factors. In many cases, hair loss is hereditary, inherited across generations within a family. Other individuals may experience hair thinning due to underlying health conditions, adverse reactions to medications or supplements, or hormonal fluctuations. Additionally, psychological stress and repetitive hairstyling practices can place undue strain on the follicles, accelerating hair loss.

Possible Side Effects of FUE
FUE, or Follicular Unit Extraction, has gained recognition as a leading hair restoration solution and is frequently used throughout Beverly Hills. The procedure entails removing individual hair follicles from a subtle section of the scalp—typically located where hair is naturally dense and easily concealable—and implanting them into regions suffering from hair thinning or balding. What makes this technique especially appealing is the seamless way the new follicles integrate with the surrounding hair, creating a result that looks entirely organic. The transplanted hair will grow naturally, offering long-term results with no visible indicators that a procedure took place.
Here’s a breakdown of how the process works:
01
First, the surgeon identifies a donor area rich in viable follicles. The hair in this section is trimmed short to allow precise removal.
02
With the help of a micro-extraction device, each follicle is gently harvested and preserved for transplantation.
03
Tiny incisions are then made in the target area, and the follicles are strategically implanted into these sites.
Conditions Treated
As a commonly performed hair transplant procedure, FUE is generally regarded as a seamless and successful treatment by most patients. Nevertheless, it's important to note that, on rare occasions, certain side effects may occur. A small number of patients in Beverly Hills have reported experiencing the following, although these cases are considered extremely uncommon:
01
Swelling
02
Numbness at the transplant site
03
Slight bleeding
The Follicle Unit Transplant Procedure
Often completed more quickly than FUE, the FUT hair restoration method is somewhat more invasive by design. The process includes removing a slender strip of scalp tissue, and the length and width of this strip depend on how many follicles are necessary to treat the bald zones. On average, the strip is about half an inch in width, though this may differ depending on the extent of the hair loss and patient-specific factors. Once obtained, the follicles are extracted from the strip and then implanted into the bald or thinning areas through precise incisions.
The step-by-step process is as follows:
01
Local anesthetic is used to numb both the donor and recipient portions of the scalp.
02
Next, the hair is trimmed at the donor site, and the surgeon removes the required strip of skin.
03
Patients remain comfortable throughout, as the anesthetic prevents any pain.
Possible Side Effects of FUT
As with FUE procedures, FUT tends to produce very few side effects, and such occurrences are uncommon in Beverly Hills. Still, some patients have experienced the following issues:

Scarring from FUT
The FUT procedure, unlike FUE, does result in a visible linear scar at the donor site where the scalp strip was taken. Although permanent, the scar typically diminishes in visibility over time. For most people, the scar remains hidden beneath the hair, but if you keep your hair very short, it may be more apparent.
Zang is THE most skilled and experienced SMP practitioner BY FAR. I have had multiple treatments with him to fill in the density in my hair and beard, and the results are amazing. People don't even believe I've had anything done until I show them my before/after pics. Zang is a great guy with an incredible attention to detail, and his work has restored my confidence big time. I really can't recommend him enough. 5 stars!

Just finished my 3rd session with Walter, best investment ever. I've tried everything short of a hair transplant over the past ten years and eventually stumbled upon SMP. I searched and researched the best SMP practitioners in the country and then decided to call the folks at Zang. Ridwan expertly walked me through the whole procedure and answered all of my questions.
If you're comfortable with the buzz cut look, SMP is the only way to go. And the team at Zang SMP are the real deal, true artists.

As a female, I didn't want to leave a public review in fear of someone I know seeing it - but at the same time, I want everyone to know about the amazingness that Zang SMP is!!! As someone who struggled with severe postpartum hair loss and a receding hair line, I really thought I would be a slave to hair powders and fillers for life (if not a transplant) and that has all changed!! I cannot say enough wonderful things about the entire experience!! If you are female and hesitant to do this, DON'T BE!!! It will change your life!!! Huge thank you to Ridwan, Walter, and the rest of the guys at Zang!! Forever grateful!

I don't normally write reviews cause it's a waste of my time but I have to this time. Over the last 20 years, I've done 3 hair transplant procedures and I was not happy with the results. I started looking into SMP and call many places before I settled with ZangSMP. It's a bit more expensive but let me tell you, worth every pennies. After the 2nd time, everyone said there's no sign that I was ever bald. And what can I say about Walter. I couldn't thank him enough. He gave me the confident I needed and a new look in life. He's such a perfectionist and took the time to do it right and make sure I'm happy with the result. I even recommended my brother to give him a call.

Thank u so much Walter and Ridd for your excellent customer service and I can't be any happier with the results. Walter is truly a master of his craft and he was able to hide my scar very well. I had gone to a different smp place before but wasnt happy with results. Zang Smp gave me the results I was looking for. There a reason why they have 5 stars on their reviews! Highly recommend!

These guys changed my life for the better. I have had alopecia for 10 years, wearing wigs and being generally uncomfortable. I was looking for a long-term solution to my alopecia and this was it. Ridwan is a delight to set things up with, and Walter has a real eye for the details. This is worth the money. A load has been lifted and I couldn’t be happier. My only regret is not coming here sooner!
