Hair Transplant using state of the art FUE technique

Hair transplantation techniques have seen a great many advances in the past 15 years..

Hair transplantation has evolved from punchgrafts to strip-surgery and in the past 15 years the ever more popular Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE). The major dis-advantage with strip-surgery has been and is the linear scar in the donor-area that becomes visible if the hair is not kept long enough.

The FUE technique has gain more popularity as it does not leave a linear scar in the donor-area. In many cases FUE does not leave a visible scar in the donor-area while in some cases the  donor-area is hardly visible. FUE hair transplant is a time consuming procedure and involves a higher degree of participation of the surgeon which makes it more expensive but also means a much higher rate of patient satisfaction.

The Follicular Unit Extraction Technique

The FUE technique is different than the FUT technique in only the method of extraction. The method of implantation used in FUE is the same as FUT.

Scalp- and body-hair can be used as a donor-hair in FUE hair transplant. However. Most commonly the sides and back of the head is used as it has the best growth prospects.

This extraction is done using special micro-punches to loosen the grafts which are then extracted using forceps. Each grafts may contain 1-4 hairs while in some cases even more hairs can be found in one grafts. The average number of hairs in each grafts varies greatly according to ethnicity. Caucasians tend to have finer hair but more hairs per grafts while Asians have thicker hair with fewer hairs per graft. In most cases patients would have an average of 1.7-2.3 hairs in one grafts.
