FUE Hair Transplant
FUE Hair Transplants for Hair Loss
An FUE Hair Transplant involves extracting healthy hair grafts from a donor site and reinserting them into problem areas.
The hair grafts are extracted one at a time by a minimally invasive device.
What is a FUE Hair Transplant?
In general, a Hair Transplant is a procedure that involves moving healthy hair that you already have on your scalp to another area that may be experiencing thinning or balding.
More specifically, a FUE Hair Transplant involves extractine healthy hair grafts one by one from a donor site and reinserting them into problem areas The grafts are removed and retransplanting using a one millimeter punch device.
Apart from healthy new hair, FUE Hair Transplants leave behind very minimal scarring, if any at all. While some individuals develop scar tissue at the graft extraction sites, these scars are so small (a one millimeter diamter dot), they’re barely visible to the naked eye. Additionally, there are no sutures (stitches) involved at any step in the procedure.
FUE Hair Transplants procedures are done while the patient is under a local anesthetic—you will be awake, yet comfortable and relaxed during the procedure.
