Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) Hair Transplant at Cutibless
What is FUE hair transplant ?
Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) is a hair transplant method in which individual follicular units (FUs) are harvested directly from the scalp. Unlike older techniques that involve removing a strip of donor tissue, FUE involves taking out each follicle individually. This technique minimizes visible scarring and allows for a more natural hair restoration process.
​
The FUE Hair Transplant Process
​
-
Incision and Extraction: In FUE hair transplant, an instrument creates a small, circular incision around a follicular unit on the scalp, separating it from the surrounding tissue. The follicular unit is then carefully extracted from the donor area, leaving behind a tiny open hole. This step is repeated until enough follicular units are harvested for the transplant.
​
-
Duration: The process of extracting each follicular unit is meticulous and can take around 6-8 hours. For larger hair transplant sessions, it may even be done over two consecutive days.
​
-
Healing Process: The donor wounds from FUE hair transplant are about 1mm in size and typically heal within 7 to 10 days. These small scars become hidden beneath surrounding hair and are usually barely noticeable.
Advantages of FUE Hair Transplant
​
-
No noticeable scarring: Suitable for individuals who want to keep their hair short (even <2 mm) without visible scars.
​
-
No sutures and no linear scar: Since individual follicles are removed, no stitches or large scars are involved.
​
-
Quick recovery: The healing process is faster, allowing patients to return to normal activities almost immediately.
​
-
Minimal post-operative pain: There is less discomfort compared to other transplant methods.
​
-
Few restrictions post-surgery: Most people can resume their usual activities the day after surgery.
​
-
Extended donor area: FUE hair transplant can use hair follicles from a wider area of the scalp.
​
-
Ideal for small grafts: FUE is useful for cases where only a limited number of grafts are needed.
​
-
Scar revision and repair: Can be used to repair donor area scars or improve undesirable hairlines.
​
-
Body hair option: FUE allows the use of body hair for transplant if required.
​
-
No permanent distortion of hair growth angles.
