FUT Hair Transplant
This is a traditional method for hair transplantation. It is used only on patients who need larger incisions because of their hair type or where it is necessary. This technique involves removing a small amount of hair from the donor area of the scalp. Implants will then be made from that strip. This procedure can cause more scarring and incisions than the FUT method. However, patients can return to their daily lives without being aware that the transplant took place. Before you have a FUT hair transplant, your surgeon will evaluate your needs and determine if it is right for you. However, FUE is the preferred method of transplantation.
FUE Hair Transplant
FUE stands for follicular units extraction. This is an innovative technique that involves individual hair follicles being removed from the scalp and then re-grafted into the area of hair loss. FUE hair transplants, which are a more advanced method of hair transplantation, help to minimize scarring. This is especially important for patients with short hair. FUE hair transplants will not cause any changes to your scalp.
