Bhushan Patil2022-12-07It was a great experience to opt Dr Malay Mehta's Aesthetic Clinic for many reasons. Consultation is free and detailed. Everything about the procedure and cost is well explained by assistants followed by detailed information by Dr Malay himself. No hidden charges or surplus amount is charged. The overall process is very transparent. And the best part about Dr Malay is he makes sure that the hairline is in sync with your face. Basically he tries to keep it natural. Aesthetic sense , precision and hygiene in this procedure is a crucial part and that is what probably sets him apart from all others. Coming to the actual procedure, the clinic is clean and the staff is friendly. They make sure that procedure remains painless and you're comfortable, it's a priority for them. All your doubts are cleared at any point of time so you can be stressfree.. Dr. Malay is always available for any pre/post procedure queries. Overall my experience at Dr. Mehta's clinic was great and it was a wise decision to opt this clinic for my hair transplant procedure. I am very happy with the results. It has almost been 6 months after procedure. Hairline looks good. I would definitely recommend Dr. Mehta.Sainath Prabhu2022-12-04Hello Everyone. Its been more than a year I had my hair transplant done from this clinic and I must say it has been one of the best decisions of my life. The results are amazing. Initially I was skeptical as I had crown balding and most of the doctors were not very positive about crown transplant but I must confess Dr Malay handled my case very efficiently and cleared most of my doubts which others could not. He gave me the confidence to go ahead with the surgery and so fars the results have been great. All the technicians are really polite and helpful and make the surgery procedure seem like a cakewalk . I will surely recommend Dr Malay for all hair related problems as he is one of the few doctors who is really passionate and has thorough understanding of his craft.alen ram2022-11-26Dr Mehta, Dr Chervi and there team - Implanter Prarthesh and Akshay, Helpar Vishal Mishra, the reception staff Shanjana, and the whole team, were amazing, as they knew I was travelling from aboard they ensured my medication was ordered in advance an handed to me, the staff are very welcoming, Mr Malay vision on customer services is reflected in there staff.

Why did my hair transplant fail?
There’s one thing worse than having to decide that you need hair transplantation surgery, and that’s for your initial hair transplant surgery to go wrong.
So, if you have had a previous hair transplant that did not do as good a job as you had hoped, then don’t worry. Dr Malay Mehta is one of the leading hair transplant surgeons in India. Staying up-to-date on the newest and most innovative techniques, Dr Malay Mehta of the Malay Mehta Aesthetic Clinic is able to ensure that you, the patient, receives excellent hair transplant repair treatments using the best possible surgical techniques.
Unfortunately, all surgical procedures come with a varying degree of risk, and for hair transplantation, an unsatisfactory result can occur due to two main reasons:
Older techniques
The use of older hair transplantation techniques has fallen out of practice for the majority of surgeons who are practicing world-class methods, one of which being Dr Malay Mehta. Older techniques have been shown to cause increased scarring, show visible signs of hair loss as visible “plugs”, or have asymmetrical hairline appearances.
Poor Physician Skill
Although the majority of poor hair transplants come as a result of using older surgical techniques, some could say that poor physician skill is to blame. A surgeon who doesn’t utilize the extend of the donor area and place the follicles properly can be at blame, especially if your new hair starts growing in different directions.

Complications of a failed hair transplant
Your initial hair transplant, although did not go as planned, may also cause a few limitations to the repair.
Growing Angle
If unprofessional work has been carried out that has caused asymmetry of the face and hairline, it may be difficult to restore a completely natural appearance. One common mistake seen amongst unprofessional hair transplants is the addition of multiple follicles into the hairline, which naturally only needs one. This can cause visible “plug” effects and leave a visibly unnatural hairline.
Additionally, hair follicles can be implanted wrongly which can lead to the growth of hair in different angles. In order to completely restore this error, Dr Mehta must remove the existing grafts and re-implant appropriately. Since this is part of the recipient, the initial site may have been completely compromised and will not accept the newly placed follicles.
Limited donor supply
Even the best surgeons such as Dr Malay Mehta may reach their limits in hair restoration surgery if there is no efficient donor follicle supply. If the scalp donor area has thinned out as a result of initial extraction, it may be difficult to perform a complete restoration. Other methods may mean the surgeon has to use donor areas from other areas of hair in your body, such as body hair.
A hair transplant repair surgery can be performed to fix unsatisfactory results and give you a more natural head of hair.
How we can correct your hair transplant
In order for Dr Malay Mehta to perform a revision or repair hair transplant surgery, he must first analyze your individual presenting problems.
If you have visible and obvious “pluggy” hair follicles, then Dr Mehta can remove the poorly implanted grafts, reduce their size, and re-implant them to create a more natural, subtle look. However, if your “plug” or patch is too obvious and is in need of additional follicles, Dr Malay Mehta can use specialized sapphire technology to carry out an FUE transplant for those extra hair follicles.
If you have experienced visible scarring from your previous hair transplant, Dr Mehta can use sapphire scalpels which perform minute and undetectable incisions to fix your scars.
Body hair transplant
A body hair transplant may be the final port-of-call for many surgeons attempting to fix a botched hair transplant. Body hair is often used to repair visible scars that have occurred due to the use of older techniques.
The primary areas used to extract donor hair follicles are from the beard or chest. This is primarily carried out on male patients for obvious reasons. However, body hair has significantly different genetic properties to the hair on the scalp, such as presenting as single follicles as opposed to grouped follicles as seen on the scalp.
As a result, this means that further follicles need to be extracted to achieve a complete result.
A hair transplant repair surgery can be performed to fix unsatisfactory results and give you a more natural head of hair.
