Deep Sleep Anesthesia · Fair Hair Clinic
For most patients, the uncomfortable part of a hair transplant is the local-anesthetic injections at the beginning.
With Fair's optional Deep Sleep Anesthesia, you are put into a medically controlled deep sleep for around 15 minutes while the local anaesthesia is administered.
When you wake up, your scalp is already numb and the hair transplant continues while you are awake.
Around 15 minutes asleep. Local anaesthesia given while you sleep. Then the treatment continues numb.

01 · Three simple steps
The anesthesia doctor gives the IV medication and brings you into a short, controlled deep sleep.
The local-anesthetic injections are administered during this approximately 15-minute sleep phase.
Once the local anaesthesia has taken effect, you wake up and the transplant continues normally. Extraction, recipient work and implantation are performed while the scalp is anaesthetised.
The point is simple:you sleep through the injections.
02 · The experience
Some patients are not worried about a hair transplant at all. Others are worried about one thing: the local-anesthetic injections.
Deep Sleep is designed for that second group.
You don't need Deep Sleep for a better result.You choose it for a different experience.
03 · Dedicated anesthesia team
Deep Sleep is not handled casually by the hair-transplant team.
When Deep Sleep is added, three additional anesthesia professionals are involved purely for this part of the treatment:
They manage the IV anesthesia, monitoring and recovery phase while the hair-transplant team remains focused on the hair transplant.
1 anesthesia doctor + 2 anesthesia technicians. Added purely for Deep Sleep.
This is one reason Fair offers Deep Sleep inside a professional private-hospital setting.
04 · Your choice
| Standard Fair anesthesia | Deep Sleep Anesthesia | |
|---|---|---|
| During local injections | Awake | Asleep |
| Local anaesthesia | Yes | Yes — given while asleep |
| Treatment after anaesthesia | Awake + numb | Awake + numb |
| Extra anesthesia team | No | Yes — 3 professionals |
| Extra cost | Included | +€350 |
Both routes use local anaesthesia to keep the scalp numb during the procedure. Deep Sleep changes the first stage — the part many patients worry about most.
05 · Price
It is the only planned paid medical add-on at Fair.
It does not change your graft count, technique, hairline planning, PRP, Graft-Tech or the quality standard of the transplant.
You are paying for the extra anesthesia service —not for a better hair transplant.

06 · Medical suitability
Deep Sleep is optional, but it is still anesthesia. The anesthesia doctor must first confirm that it is suitable for you.
Before treatment, tell Fair about your medical conditions, medications, allergies and any previous problems with anesthesia.
You will receive the exact eating, drinking and medication instructions for your case before treatment.
