FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) Hair Transplant
How Follicular Unit Extraction is Performed
Best Candidates for Follicular Unit Extraction
- Patients interested in a smaller size procedure (typically up to 1,000 grafts).
- Patients with a limited donor supply.
- Patients with limited scalp elasticity.
- Patient who have had several FUT procedures and subsequently have a limited donor supply or limited scalp elasticity.
- Patients who have a need or desire to wear their hair exceptionally short.
- Patients who don’t mind closely clipping the donor area hair at the time of the procedure.
FUE Technique- Follicular Unit Extraction
FUE- The Cutting Edge Technology in Hair Transplantation
In FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) method the hair roots are extracted by special tipped micro-engines under local anesthesia and transplanted into hairless areas by taking the natural hair grow angle and direction into account.
Today most of the hair transplantatiın operations are made through FUE technique. Since it is not a surgical operation the patients can decide easily and prefer this technique.
In FUE method the hair roots are extracted one by one and transplanted to hairless areas. Before the follicular extraction operation the hair on the donor area is shortened to 1 mm. Local anesthesia is applied on the area of extraction and transplantation. Micro motor tip approaches as to center the hair root and according to the development angle of the hair pricked into the skin and pulled back. The hair is cut in a cylinder shape together with the surrounding microscopic tissue. The follicular unit is being pulled gently by a micro forceps. This automated system which reduces the graft waste to minimum also reduces the operation time and increase the graft number in time unit. The collected follicular units are being placed into tiny holes on the hairless skin. Each follicular unit contains 2-3 follicules.
The features of FUE method are:
<!–[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]–>
• On the area where the grafts are extracted, the tissue is not extracted but only the related root cell is extracted.
• No cut and stitches on the extraction area. • Scars smaller than 06-07 mm occur on the extraction area which will be vanished in a couple of days and heal without any trace.
• Throughout this method, the grafts extracted from the nape can be used in hair transplantation as well as in eyebrow, mustache and beard transplantation.
• In one session, according to the condition of the donor area and according to the number of roots to be transplanted, 3.000 and 5.000 grafts can be extracted.
• Each graft contains 1-5 strands. 1 graft is considered as 2,5-3 strands.
• Depending on the gathered number of roots and baldness, it is possible to transplant 50-60 hair roots per square centimeters.
• Also less pain after the operation and the short recovery period are among the reasons to prefer this method.
Transplanted hair mostly be lost by the end of the first month and 2-3 months after the hair transplantation will begin growing again.
Becomes visible on 6th month. But takes the best form after completing the adaptation process in 1-1,5 years. Transplanted hair will not be lost since being extracted from an area coded for not being lost. The color and the characteristics of the hair will be the same since being extracted from the person oneself.
When carried out by a professional team, quite good results are taken in hair transplantation.
Lifelong growing hair changes the human appearance and also affects the psychology positively.
Hair transplantation is a scientific art since it requires visual quality and experience.
Self confidence increases as a result of naturally growing hair.
| FUE (NO STITCHES) |
 |
| (Also know by proprietary names such as DHI, FIT, CIT, FUSE, WOOD”S METHOD etc)In this method; the hair Roots (Follicular Units) are individually harvested one by one from the donor area by a micro punch device of 0.75 to 1 mm size. The wound is 1 mm or less in diameter and therefore heals rapidly with practically no visible scarring. |

| Recent advances have evolved this modern and stitch less method that eliminates the potential side effects occasionally seen in the conventional Strip Procedure because of the stitches in the donor area. This new method does not leave a linear scar on the back of the head and the wounds are tiny, there is less blood loss and heals faster compared to the strip method. The procedure is practically pain free post operatively. Allows short hairstyle or buzz cut without showing up any linear scar. Final outcome is better. We use 0.75 to 1 mm micro punch with depth control and use the safest Lorenzo technique for extraction. |
 |
| Unlike Strip method FUE does not expand the balding area due to stretch of the skin while stitching up the wound. It is better for the extraction of white hairs. It is ideal for tight scalp due to past surgery or fibrous skin where strip surgery can have donor area problems. FUE grafts are usually less bulky compared to strip grafts and therefore they require smaller size incisions for plantation and therefore less trauma is inflicted and more density can be packed. Because of the nature of the procedure it is more expensive compared to strip procedure. For over 400 to 500 grafts usually you need to shave the entire donor area, which at times is a limitation for some people. |

| Unshaven FUE: |
|
| Well usually FUE needs shaving of the donor area. Because some people do not want to shave their head they cannot take regular FUE. But we have modified our techniques where we can now offer FUE even without shaving the entire donor area. This is a variant of FUE. This will not make it obvious to others that you have undergone such a procedure. This procedure is much more demanding and will take longer time to perform. We can harvest up to 1000 to 1200 grafts by this method. This procedure therefore costs more than the regular FUE procedure.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iwuFnA_O7eE |
