PERMANENT & NATURAL-LOOKING RESULTS
USING TWO OF THE MOST EFFECTIVE PROCEDURES
The FUE Procedure
1. Punch Incision
Tiny punch incisions are made, using millimetric surgical instruments, around the individual follicular units, from the prepared donor area. This cleanly isolates the graft for extraction.
2. Extraction of Follicular Units
Each of the isolated grafts is carefully extracted from the scalp, using very fine forceps that can cleanly grip the follicular unit.
3. Harvesting of grafts
Trained technicians work with high-powered microscopes to examine and prepare the extracted follicular grafts for placement. Each graft is grouped based on the number of hairs within each follicle.
4. Implantation of grafts
Small incisions are made to the recipient area, to match the natural hair growth pattern. The grafts are strategically placed one by one, based on the numbers of hairs that are within each follicle.
The FUT Procedure
1. Strip harvesting
Strip harvesting is the most common technique for removing hair and follicles from a donor site. The doctor harvests a strip of skin from the posterior scalp, in an area of good hair growth.
2. Strip Slivering
In slivering, the dissector divides the long donor strip into smaller sections of approximately 2-2.5mm in width. This technique generates smaller pieces of hair-bearing tissue without breaking up follicular units and without transecting hair.
3. Grafts Dissection
One of the most important aspects of FUT Hair Transplant surgery is stereo-microscopic dissection. This allows follicular units to be removed from the donor strip without being broken or damaged.
4. Grafts Insertion
Grafts containing hair follicles that are genetically resistant to balding (like the back of the head) are transplanted to the balding areas of scalp.
