Hi there,

Hair transplantation is one of the most common cosmetic surgical option and becoming popular day by day. In this technique hair follicles are surgically removed from more hair enriched areas and implanted into scalp at the bald areas.

In one of the Hair Transplant Procedure hairs are  transplanted into the bald area using small bore needles or blades from small wounds of the donor strips of hair. Another technique is a Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE)  which involves removing and transplanting the hair from small hairy skin patch.

In both the techniques, hairs fall out and then regrow in the transplanted area approximately two months later. You need to consult a Skin Specialist to understand this in more details. I hope it helps.
