A consultation before any decision

Before any procedure, a medical consultation allows for a precise evaluation of the hair situation.

This first meeting allows for the study of:

  • the type of hair loss
  • the evolution of baldness
  • the quality of the donor area
  • the feasibility of the treatment

At ANAGEN, this consultation is carried out directly by the physicians to determine if hair transplantation is the most suitable solution.

The FUE technique at the ANAGEN center

The technique used at the center is FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction), a method that involves extracting follicles one by one before reimplanting them into thinning areas.

This technique allows for:

  • the absence of a linear scar
  • faster recovery
  • more precise implantation
  • a more natural result

Each procedure is designed according to the patient’s face, existing density, and the future evolution of their hair loss.

A specialized center in Lyon

Located in the Croix-Rousse district of Lyon, ANAGEN welcomes patients from Lyon, the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region, and all over France.

The center was designed to offer:

  • a reassuring medical environment
  • confidential care
  • personalized support
  • follow-up supervised by the practitioners themselves

This organization ensures continuous medical care before, during, and after the transplant.

A specialized center in Lyon

The result of a hair transplant also depends on the quality of post-operative follow-up.

After the procedure, each patient benefits from:

  • a post-transplant care kit
  • detailed instructions for the first few days
  • five follow-up consultations
  • follow-up provided directly by the center’s physicians

This protocol allows for monitoring the evolution of regrowth and supporting each stage of the result.

Hair transplant in Lyon: a tailor-made approach

Every hair loss is different. At ANAGEN, there is no standardized protocol.

Treatment is adapted according to:

  • the patient’s age
  • the stage of baldness
  • aesthetic expectations
  • the available donor capital

The objective is to offer a hair transplant in Lyon that remains natural, balanced, and adapted for the long term.

1. What is a hair transplant?

A hair transplant is a medical procedure that involves taking hair follicles from a donor area (often the back of the head) to reimplant them in thinning or balding areas.
Transplanted grafts retain their permanent character, allowing for definitive and natural regrowth.

FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) is a modern technique that allows grafts to be harvested one by one, without a visible linear scar.
FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation), which is older, involves a surgical strip taken from the back of the head.


FUE is today the most used method for its precision and scar discretion.

Hair transplant is intended for people suffering from androgenetic alopecia, mainly men between 25 and 60 years old.
A medical evaluation is necessary to check the density and quality of the donor area, as well as the stability of hair loss before considering an intervention.

The number of grafts depends on the surface to be treated and the density of the donor area.
A session can range from 1,000 to 6,000 grafts, spread over one or two days depending on the clinical case.
The practitioner determines the most suitable strategy after the diagnosis.

FUE hair transplant is performed under local anesthesia.
The patient is conscious and relaxed throughout the procedure.
Discomfort may be felt after the intervention, but it disappears in a few days with the prescribed care.

Regrowth follows several natural stages:

  • Temporary loss of grafts between 2 and 4 weeks after the transplant,
  • Start of regrowth around the 3rd or 4th month,
  • Visible result at 6 months,
  • Final result between 9 and 12 months after the intervention.

Each patient progresses at their own pace.

The FUE technique leaves no linear scar.
Micro-traces may be visible on the donor area for the first few days, but they disappear quickly.
Good healing depends on following post-operative instructions.

Implanted hair comes from areas genetically programmed not to fall out.
They retain this characteristic after the transplant.
However, non-transplanted hair may continue to thin: regular medical follow-up helps stabilize the progression of baldness.

The duration depends on the number of grafts to be implanted.
On average, a session lasts 6 to 8 hours.
For large transplants (up to 6,000 grafts), the intervention can be performed over two consecutive days.

The first few days require specific care to protect the grafts:

  • Gentle cleaning and thermal water spray,
  • Avoid sun, sports, and wearing a cap,
  • Sleep with the head slightly elevated,
  • Follow the post-operative instructions given by the center.

Personalized follow-up is provided to accompany each stage of healing.
