Hair transplantation is a complicated procedure that necessitates meticulous attention to detail and experience in order to produce optimal outcomes that enhance the patient's appearance. Dermatologists advise that specific tests be performed prior to undergoing a hair transplant. A list of tests that are performed on a patient before he has a hair transplant is provided below.

• Hepatitis B and C tests: Hepatitis B and C are equally serious viral infections that impair liver health. Since they are very infectious and communicable, if the test results are positive, the candidate is not offered a hair transplant to prevent infection risks.
• HIV Test: The body's immune system is hampered by HIV which minimizes its ability to fight illness. Thus people who have AIDS are not suggested to go for a transplant as it might pose serious threats to their health.
• Coagulation tests: This test is done to see how long plasma needs to coagulate and analyze the chances of bleeding after a hair transplant. If the person seems to have a blood clotting disorder, the doctor will not do a hair transplant.
• Blood Sugar Test: This test is used to monitor blood sugar levels and check whether or not a patient has diabetes. If the patient is highly diabetic and his blood sugar levels are not in range, the transplant is not carried out.
• Blood Pressure Check: Doctors check the blood pressure of the patients before the procedure. If the blood pressure is too high or too low, the transplant will not be done.

These tests range from ₹500 and go up to ₹4000 across India.
