Follicular unit excision (FUE) is a modern hair transplant method designed to restore hair growth in areas affected by pattern baldness or thinning. In order to understand what the follicular unit excision method is, you must first understand what follicular units are. Follicular units are naturally occurring groups of hair found on the scalp. Each unit typically consists of one to four individual hair strands (or follicles), though units containing a single hair are also common. When performing FUE hair transplant surgeries, the doctor will meticulously harvest and transplant these follicular units.
Unlike traditional hair transplant techniques that require large plugs, FUE is less invasive and leaves no linear scar. This approach allows for the preservation of the natural grouping of hair, which is essential for maintaining the hair’s natural growth patterns and achieving an aesthetically pleasing and undetectable transplant. Hair transplant surgeons can create more natural-looking results that closely mimics the patient’s original hairline.
The FUE hair transplant method offers a range of benefits that have made this technique a preferred choice among many patients. Here are some of the key benefits of the FUE hair transplant:
The FUE hair transplant process involves three main stages: extraction, preparation, and implantation, each meticulously performed to ensure the best possible outcome.
The success of the FUE hair transplant procedure depends on the skill and experience of the surgeon. This is why it’s important to consult with a qualified and experienced hair transplant surgeon. Dr. Markou is one of the leading hair transplant surgeons in the country specializing in FUE hair transplants. Schedule a free consultation today to determine if the procedure is right for you.
On the day of the procedure, the surgeon will administer local anesthesia to minimize any discomfort for the patient. The procedure begins with the surgeon extracting individual hair follicles from the donor area, typically the back or sides of the scalp where hair is more resistant to balding. Using a medical device such as ARTAS or Trivellini, each follicular unit is removed with minimal discomfort and without the need for a scalpel or stitches
Once extracted, the follicular units are carefully inspected and prepared under a microscope. This step ensures that only the healthiest grafts are selected for transplantation, enhancing the success rate of the procedure. Extracted grafts are preserved in a special solution to maintain their viability.
The final stage involves creating tiny recipient sites in the balding areas and carefully implanting the prepared follicular units. The surgeon meticulously places each graft at a specific angle and density to mimic natural hair growth patterns, ensuring a seamless and natural-looking result.
