Q&A

 

Follicular Unit Transplant (FUT): works by removing a strip of tissue from the back of the head. The strip is then separated into smaller pieces, where the individual grafts are selected, and then carefully implanted into the site where the hair is thinning, one follicle at a time.

Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE): consists of removing grafts individually, each containing 1-3 hair follicles, before seamlessly implanting them into the recipient site. FUE gives patients more style options, as it results in less noticeable, smaller scars around the donor site.

Hair thinning and hair loss can happen at all ages. Often, male pattern baldness occurs in the late 30s and 40s and progresses throughout life. Women may also experience hair thinning that can occur at any age, but most commonly in the mid ages of life.
Firstly, the pattern of balding is assessed to ensure that there aren’t other medical causes to the thinning. In general, the patient needs to be reasonably healthy, however, most patients tend to be good candidates for hair transplant surgery.
The procedure is not painful because it is all done under local anesthesia. A few injections are required, but for the most part the whole scalp is numb for the operation.
