Restore Your Confidence with FUE Hair Transplant

Types of Follicular Unit Extraction(FUE)

There are several techniques used in follicular unit extraction(FUE) procedures. Here are some of the most common types:

• Manual FUE: In this traditional approach, follicular units are extracted manually using a punch tool operated by the surgeon. It requires precision and skill to extract grafts without damaging surrounding tissues.
• Motorized FUE: This technique utilizes a motorized punch tool to extract follicular units quickly and efficiently. The rotating motion of the tool allows for faster extraction, reducing procedure time.
• Robotic FUE: Robotic-assisted FUE involves the use of advanced robotic technology to harvest follicular units. The robot’s precision and accuracy minimize human error, resulting in consistent graft quality.
• NeoGraft FUE: NeoGraft is a specific brand of automated FUE system that utilizes pneumatic pressure to extract grafts. It offers a less invasive alternative to manual or motorized techniques, reducing the risk of trauma to the donor area.
• ARTAS FUE: ARTAS is another robotic-assisted FUE system that uses artificial intelligence algorithms to select and harvest follicular units. It provides precise control over graft extraction, ensuring optimal results.

Procedure Details

Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) Hair Transplant procedure typically involves several steps:

1. Consultation and Assessment: The process begins with a consultation with a qualified hair transplant surgeon. During this consultation, the surgeon will assess your scalp, hair loss pattern, and suitability for FUE hair transplant.
2. Designing the Hairline: Once deemed suitable for FUE, the surgeon will work with you to design a natural-looking hairline that complements your facial features and aesthetic goals.
3. Preparation: On the day of the procedure, the donor area (usually the back or sides of the scalp) is trimmed short to facilitate easy extraction of follicular units.
4. Local Anesthesia: Local anesthesia is administered to numb both the donor and recipient areas, ensuring a comfortable experience during the procedure.
5. Extraction of Follicular Units: Using a specialized tool called a micropunch, individual follicular units containing 1-4 hairs are carefully extracted from the donor area. This process is meticulous and requires precision to minimize damage to surrounding follicles.
6. Preparation of Recipient Sites: While the follicular units are being extracted, the recipient sites in the balding or thinning areas of the scalp are prepared. These tiny incisions are made with great care to ensure proper angulation and density for natural-looking results.
7. Implantation of Follicular Units: Once an adequate number of follicular units have been harvested, they are meticulously implanted into the recipient sites. The surgeon follows the pre-designed hairline and graft distribution plan to achieve optimal aesthetic outcomes.
8. Post-Procedure Care: After the procedure, detailed post-operative instructions are provided to promote healing and optimize graft survival. This may include gentle hair washing techniques, avoiding strenuous activities, and taking prescribed medications to prevent infection and promote healing.
9. Follow-Up Visits: Follow-up visits are scheduled to monitor progress, assess graft survival, and address any concerns or questions you may have during the recovery process.
