FUE Hair Transplant
The FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) hair transplant is a modern hair restoration technique that involves individually extracting hair follicles from the donor area and implanting them into thinning or balding areas. This method is favored for its minimally invasive nature and natural results. FUE allows for quick healing with no visible scars, providing patients with significant aesthetic improvement. However, the success of the procedure depends on the surgeon’s expertise and a careful evaluation of the patient’s specific needs.

What is the principle of the follicular extraction technique?
The FUE technique involves harvesting follicular units using a punch (0.8 to 0.9 mm) from the donor area at the occipital and temporal regions and transplanting them directly into the balding area to be treated. Although the quality of follicular harvesting is directly operator-dependent, advancements in instrumentation have improved the speed of hair graft extraction and significantly reduced the loss of follicular units.
What is a follicular unit?
When observing a healthy scalp with magnifying glasses, it is noticed that the hair emerges through the skin in groups ranging from 1 to 4 hairs.
How does the procedure unfold?
The extraction of a follicular unit is performed using a micro-punch. This instrument, with its sharp, circular edge, isolates a follicular unit from all its skin and fatty attachments. Once isolated, the follicular unit is retrieved with a micro-tweezer before being reimplanted in the thinning area. The follicular units are preserved in an enriched medium before being transplanted. The hair grafts are sorted and grouped based on the number of hair follicles per follicular unit.
