Biofibre synthetic hair implants represent a revolution in hair restoration. This cutting-edge technology, designed to restore natural hair, harmonious hair density, offers an innovation solution for men and women with baldness and alopecia. Using biocompatible fiber implants, this method is a fast, safe and aesthetically option alternative to traditional hair transplantation.
Biofibre is a good option for those who have had a previous hair transplant and need more hair density and is a way for patients to enjoy hair restoration treatment without the need for a donor area.
The modern Biofibre procedure (developed in Italy) is certified and recognized as a safe medical procedure, which must be done by a recognized Doctors.
What does Biofibre hair look like:
Biofibre hair comes in a range of lengths from 15cm to 45cm and it comes in 13 different colors. The fibers won’t lose their color or go grey like natural hair.
In this procedure, there are two types of hair thickness to choose from, Biofibre 4.0 is the standard hair used for procedures, with 1000 fibers being equivalent to 3000 hairs.
The high density Medicap High Density (MHD) has three hairs implanted per follicle, allowing for a fuller appearance.
A Biofibre hair is implanted deeper into the gelea capitis layer of skin. This secures the in the absence of the anchoring root.
Key Features:
1. Feature 1: Biofibre implants are made from a bio compatible polyamide material, designed to mimic natural hair.
2. Feature 2: The fibres are thin, flexible and inserted into the scalp using implant procedure, under local anesthesia. It gives an immediate aesthetic result with a minimal downtime.
3. Feature 3: The procedure involves implanting each fibre one by one into the scalp by using implanting procedure. Once planted it needs a period of time (about 20-30 days) to become securely integrated with the surrounding tissue. It doesn’t grow like natural hair but it can be cut or be styled.

In this procedure, there are two types of hair thickness to choose from. Biofibre 4.0 is the standard hair used for procedures, with 1,000 fibers being equivalent to 3,000 hairs. The high-density Medicap High Density (MHD) has three hairs implanted per follicle, allowing for a fuller appearance. MHD hairs are recommended to be used for crown hair transplants, while the standard.
Biofibre hairs are used to lower the hairline. All Biofibre hairs are focused on medical use and have a safety grade of VI on the medical polymer scale, meaning they are completely safe and appropriate for hair restoration.
A Biofibre hair transplant uses hooked needles to implant the hairs, meaning there’s less post-transplant downtime. Biofibre hairs must be implanted deeper beneath the skin to prevent substantial shedding as there’s no follicle to root the hair in place. It takes around 20-30 days for the hairs to anchor. The process may need to be repeated every 5 weeks, in order to produce the desired amount, density, and length.
The procedure has a success rate of around 95-98%. However, research has shown that 2% of cases resulted in the extraction of fibers due to hair transplant infection. Biofibre hairs are synthetic, so the body may reject the artificial hair implants.
