Thanks to the use of either sedation or needle free jet anaesthesia given under the direct supervision of our Anaesthesiologist, you will no longer feel any pain during the administration of local anaesthesia prior to the hair transplant procedure. As a consequence, you will be having a more comfortable and pain-free hair transplant experience. Even though hair transplants are generally considered as painless procedures, this new method will help our patients who suffer from needle phobia, to feel at ease, allowing them to relax during the procedure. Owing to this, the level of pain that was currently at minimum is now almost completely eliminated.

Three types of Anaesthesia

When administering anaesthesia, it is classified into three sub-categories, anaesthesia administered by injection, anaesthesia administered by pressure, and anaesthesia administered after soft sedation. In the Soft FUE method, prior to the hair transplant procedure, the administration of anaesthesia is given by injection, anaesthesia of the recipient as well as the donor area are required, meaning there will be two injections administered.

Another method used for injecting anaesthesia jet injection, this is where jet injectors works by using pressurized gas to allow the skin to absorb the medication, numbing itself, and then an anaesthesia injection will be done. This method is used to reduce pain as low as possible, even for the anaesthesia, which is exactly why Soft FUE method is the most pain free hair transplantation process to this day.

Next comes the soft sedation application, this is applied under the direct supervision of an anaesthesiologist. The doctor will prepare the protocols and adjust the dosage of anaesthesia specific to that of the patients needs, it will then be administered through an IV. The procedure will begin once the patient has shown visible signs of relaxation, this process typically takes a few minutes to complete.

Soft FUE Procedure

Soft FUE transplantation is guaranteed that the patient receiving sedation feels no pain during the administration of local anaesthesia, they will remain conscious during the procedure, but their senses will be dulled. Unlike normal anaesthesia administration, patients ARE allowed to eat or drink 24 hours prior to the procedure, patients can meet all their needs during the procedure such as eating, drinking, or using the toilet, the patient can then return home after the operation with little to no difficulties. With this, the patient can be informed during the whole procedure and cooperation can be used during.
