FUE Hair Transplantation
Hair loss or alopecia is a common problem that affects both men and women and can be caused by stress, illnesses, certain medical treatments, and genes. While some of these factors are temporary or reversible, many suffer from permanent hair loss that can lead to self-esteem issues. As an effective and permanent solution, hair transplant surgery can help men and women suffering from baldness or hair loss. FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) is still the most advanced technique in hair transplantation since its development in the early 2000s and its introduction in 2005. This method basically involves removing individual hair follicle units directly from the donor area rather than an excised strip that is then dissected into follicular units, as is largely done with the FUT (Follicular Unit Transplant) technique. it is outdated and has only historical value. Compared to the FUT technique, FUE has the advantage of not leaving a linear scar in the donor area as well as providing a faster and more comfortable postoperative recovery for patients. Despite the general increase in the surface area of the donor scar with FUE compared to traditional strip harvesting during FUT sessions, the reduced visibility of the scar in the donor area allows patients to wear their hair for a relatively short time after FUE. Providing natural looking hair to people with hair loss, FUE is considered the gold standard technique in hair restoration today.

FAQs
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) hair transplantation is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that involves harvesting individual hair follicles from a donor area, typically the back or sides of the scalp, and transplanting them into areas experiencing hair loss or thinning. This technique ensures a natural-looking result by transplanting hair follicles one by one.
Good candidates for FUE hair transplantation are individuals experiencing hair loss or thinning, whether due to genetic factors, hormonal changes, or other causes. Suitable candidates have sufficient donor hair in the back or sides of the scalp, where hair follicles can be harvested for transplantation. Consulting with a qualified hair transplant specialist is crucial to determine if FUE is the right procedure for your specific case.
During FUE hair transplantation, the donor area is shaved, and individual hair follicles are extracted using a specialised micro-punch tool. The extracted follicles are then carefully implanted into the recipient areas of the scalp, where hair loss or thinning has occurred. The procedure is performed under local anaesthesia, and the healing process is generally faster compared to other hair transplantation techniques.
Recovery time after FUE hair transplantation varies from person to person, but most individuals can resume regular activities within a few days. It is normal to experience some mild swelling, redness, and scabbing in the donor and recipient areas, which typically resolve within a week or two. The transplanted hair may shed initially, but new hair growth should begin within a few months.
Yes, the results of FUE hair transplantation are considered permanent. The transplanted hair follicles are typically resistant to the effects of hair loss, making them a long-term solution for restoring hair growth. However, it’s important to note that the procedure does not prevent future hair loss in other areas of the scalp, so a comprehensive approach to hair loss management may be recommended.
