Specific Conditions & Medical Requirements

Frequently Asked Questions

Is hair transplantation possible for HIV-positive patients?

Yes, hair transplantation is possible for HIV-positive patients if specific conditions are met. These include a stable viral load (undetectable) and overall good health, as confirmed by your treating physician.

Why is a negative RNA test needed?

A negative RNA test indicates that the virus is undetectable due to successful antiretroviral therapy (ART). This reduces risks for both the patient and medical staff while ensuring optimal healing conditions.

What requirements must be met?

• A well-managed HIV infection with a stable viral load.

• A healthy CD4 cell count (ideally above 500).

• Clearance from your physician to confirm that no other health issues may pose a risk.

Preparation & Procedure

Frequently Asked Questions

What should I do before the procedure?

• Maintain adherence to your antiretroviral therapy.

• Obtain a clearance letter and negative RNA test results from your physician.

Are there differences in treatment for HIV-positive patients?

The hair transplant procedure itself is the same as for HIV-negative patients. However, we pay special attention to strict hygiene measures and detailed planning to ensure the utmost safety for everyone involved.

Privacy & Risks

Frequently Asked Questions

Can the procedure be carried out discreetly?

Absolutely. We prioritize your privacy at every step, from consultation to treatment, ensuring a comfortable and confidential experience.

Are there any specific risks?

HIV-positive patients with well-controlled conditions do not face significantly higher risks than others. However, diligent aftercare is particularly important to prevent infections.
