What Is FUE Hair Transplant
The FUE method involves extracting individual hair follicles, known as grafts, from a donor part of the body and implanting them into thin or balding areas.
The specific number of grafts a patient receives is contingent upon the:
Diameter of transplant area
Quality, density, and overall type of hair
Hair Color
The FUE procedure is relatively painless, as it is performed under local anesthesia; the recipient area is numbed by administering small incisions of anesthetic with a micro-needle. The surgeon then inserts the grafts at an angle and concentration to match the natural hair pattern, creating a new hairline that will eventually regrow to yield permanent results.
Advantages Of The FUE Method
It doesn’t require stitches or incisions
Less bleeding
Quicker recovery with minimal downtime
No linear scar in the donor zone
It is possible to regrow hair in areas with scars
The surgeon can extract specific hair follicles
Disadvantages
Patients who wish to transplant a lot of grafts may require further sessions.
The FUE hair transplant cost per graft is more costly than traditional procedures due to its comparable advantages.
