It's fair to ask whether or not you'll be awake during a hair transplant, because being awake minimizes the seriousness of the surgery.
Yes. You will be awake throughout the procedure, making hair transplants a very safe and easy outpatient procedure. We have a television in the operating room, so you can spend the afternoon watching shows or listening to music.
During the surgery, you will be under the effects of local anesthesia, and will not feel any pain but you will be awake the entire time. If you opt in for an oral sedative you may fall asleep during portions of the procedure.
