“Seeing scalp through my parting felt like losing a piece of myself. One year later, I’ve stopped worrying about where the wind blows my hair.”
— Patient B., 51 yrs. Siliguri
Our patient—a government school-teacher—noticed the centre part widening year after year. Vermilion and clever combing offered only temporary cover; oral medications barely helped. She wanted a lasting, natural solution without a dramatic haircut or social downtime, so she booked a consult with Dr Choudhury.
At Dr Paul’s Salt Lake Clinic, Dr Choudhury performed a digital trichoscopy confirming female-pattern hair loss focused on the frontal and partition zones. The recommendation: a Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) transplant using 2,000 grafts—enough to restore density while preserving donor reserves.
Why FUE for women?
Parameter | Details |
Date & Start | 22 Oct 2022, 09:00 a.m. |
Anaesthesia | Local + vibration distraction (Dentapen) |
Donor management | Tiny occipital window trimmed; rest of hair covers it |
Grafts placed | 2,000, angled to follow her natural parting |
Duration | ~6 hours with music and coffee breaks |
Timeline | What Happens | Patient’s Notes |
0–3 mo | Transient “shock shed”; follicles rest. | “Looks thinner—Dr Choudhury’s team assured me it’s normal.” |
3–6 mo | Peach-fuzz sprouts along parting. | Colleagues notice subtle fullness. |
6–9 mo | Diameter thickens; scalp visibility drops. | Returned to simpler hairstyles. |
12 mo | Final calibre & shine. | “I feel photo-ready without filters!” |
Result: near-complete coverage of previously sparse zones, with natural density and zero tell-tale scars.

Myth | Reality at Dr Paul’s |
“Transplants are only for men.” | FUE is gender-neutral; design and hormone context change, not the science. |
“I’ll need to shave my head.” | We use micro-shave windows concealed by surrounding hair. |
“Results look pluggy.” | QHT™ handling + ≤0.9 mm punches = feather-soft, natural hairlines. |
Q: How many grafts do most women need?
A: Partition-line recessions often require 1,500-2,500 grafts; diffuse thinning may need staged sessions.
Q: Will hormonal imbalance sabotage results?
A: Underlying endocrine issues (thyroid, PCOS, menopause) must be co-managed; transplanted grafts remain largely DHT-resistant.
Q: When can I colour my hair again?
A: Gentle colouring from Month 3; bleach highlights from Month 6.
