Hair transplant in RIIHT – Radha Institute of Hair Transplant

RIIHT – Radha Institute of Hair Transplant is a private, surgeon-led clinic in Visakhapatnam, India. The facility focuses on hair restoration and dermatology across two departments. Also known as the International Institute of Hair Transplant (IIHT), the clinic guides patients from consultation through surgery and follow-up care.

Recognitions and Medical Expertise

Dr. Radha Rani leads the clinic with around 20 years of clinical experience. She is the first surgeon in India to hold dual certification from the International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS) and the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery (ABHRS).

Patient safety follows the IIHT Standard. Under this protocol, Dr. Radha Rani personally performs or directly supervises every surgery. The clinic does not outsource surgical steps to technicians. This approach has supported over 5,000 successful hair transplants since operations began.

Surgical Hair Restoration Techniques

Specialists offer several surgical options for scalp and facial hair restoration. Each procedure begins with individualized aesthetic planning, including facial mapping to set precise angles for hairlines and temples. Available surgical methods include:

• FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) – individual follicle harvesting for minimal scarring
• FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation) – strip harvesting for high-volume graft needs
• Mega Session – combined FUE and FUT for maximum density coverage
• Repair and Correction Surgery – refining or fixing suboptimal results from previous transplants

Surgeons also apply these techniques for beard and eyebrow enhancement. All procedures take place in sterile operating theaters that meet international standards.

Non-Surgical Hair Loss Treatments

The clinic provides medical therapies for patients who don't need surgery or want to support existing follicle health. These treatments improve hair density and scalp wellness through biological regeneration:

• PRP Therapy – platelets from the patient's blood stimulate growth
• GFC (Growth Factor Concentrate) Therapy – a highly concentrated growth factor treatment
• Hair Wellness programs and medically managed hair loss protocols

These therapies often accompany surgery to improve graft survival and speed healing. Dr. Radha Rani oversees all medical treatments. Her background includes dermatology training at Andhra Medical College and a fellowship at the National Skin Centre in Singapore.

Services for International Patients

RIIHT treats patients from Australia, the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, and Canada. The clinic provides assistance in English and Hindi.

Patient coordinators help international visitors throughout the consultation and treatment process. They bridge the gap between initial inquiries and the surgical schedule in Visakhapatnam.
