Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) is a hair restoration surgery in which individual follicles from a donor area are removed and transplanted to a bald or thinning area. The donor area is typically on the back or sides of the head where the hair is stronger and less prone to hair loss. During this process, our specialists will take follicular units from the scalp, one at a time, with the aid of special micro-punch tools. These follicles will be then gently placed in specific areas with the direction of hair growth and at the exact angle. This technique will help to better integrate transplanted hair with the natural hair.
What sets FUE apart from FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation), is the fact that no strip of scalp is removed. As FUE does not have to be stitched or incised, patients also have less pain and downtime with the procedure. The technique can be used for those who suffer from male pattern baldness, thinning hair, a receding hairline, even beard and eyebrow thinning. This results gradually and as time goes by, patients will have more hair, thicker and fuller.
While FUE hair transplantation is beneficial to numerous patients, the ideal patient typically has good donor hair and realistic expectations concerning the procedure. This treatment is ideal for men and women with pattern baldness, thinning hair and receding hairline. Injured individuals, individuals who have lost their hair from stress or due to past surgeries may also be eligible.
An ideal candidate will need a sufficient number of healthy follicles on the donor site for transplantation. Other factors taken into account by the professionals before suggesting the treatment include texture, condition of the scalp and general health of the strands. Those who have stable hair loss patterns are likely to have the best long-term outcome.
Most people with short hair prefer FUE as the small extraction scars are hardly visible. It’s also perfect for individuals who are seeking a less invasive procedure that will heal quicker. For patients who have extensive hair loss, and only a small amount of hair to donate, however, may need more sessions or other treatment methods.
The first step in the FUE procedure is to have detailed consultation and scalp analysis with our hair specialists at Hash Clinics. This is when our doctor reviews the degree of hair loss, quality of hair from the donor and the desired outcome. A special treatment plan will be then devised, based on the patient’s needs and face.
Local anesthesia will be used on the day of the procedure to make the patient feel more comfortable. The area that will be used for the donation is cut, and the individual hair follicles are removed with a special micro punch tool. These hair follicles will be stored in a very special way prior to their replacement. Small cuts will be then made in the area to be grafted and the grafts are placed carefully in there.
This may take a number of hours depending on the number of grafts needed. Typically, patients are not sedated and are comfortable during the procedure. The technique is minimally invasive and induces little bleeding or discomfort. Following the procedure, patients will be given aftercare guidelines to ensure the protection of the grafts and to help the healing process. In the next few months, the transplanted follicles start regrowing fresh hair, giving the appearance of a fuller, natural head of hair.
FUE hair transplant has a number of benefits which make it one of the most sought-after hair restoration procedures in the world.
At Hash Clinics, FUE hair transplant cost begins around Rs. 70,000. The price of FUE hair transplant depends on number of grafts and sessions required. If you want to know more about FUE hair transplant pricing, contact us at Hash Clinics.
Aftercare is a critical aspect in the success of a FUE hair transplant. Patients might have some mild swelling, redness or sensitivity in the treated areas right after the treatment. These reactions will fade away over a few days. By following the our doctor’s advice, you can be sure to have a smooth healing process and healthy hair regrowth.
Patients should refrain from touching the transplant area and scratching during the early healing phase. The scalp should be washed gently, and special shampoos are used to maintain its cleanliness while protecting the grafts. With the head raised a few nights, swelling and discomfort will be minimized.
It is important for a period of time to avoid strenuous exercise, excessive sweating, smoking and alcohol to avoid interfering with the healing process. The effect of sunlight should be avoided also, to avoid damage to the sensitive scalp. It’s normal to shed some of the transplanted hair initially, as part of the hair growth cycle. Typically, new hair growth is seen in 3-4 months following the procedure.
Remember, one of the most critical steps in achieving successful FUE hair transplant results is to find the right clinic. Thus, book your appointment at Hash Clinics today. Our skilled surgeons know the principles of facial symmetry, hairline design and placement of grafts in ways that will help create natural results.
Our professionals will carry out a thorough examination of the scalp at the consultation and have a clear understanding of the potential outcomes. They inform you of the number of grafts needed, recovery period, and what you can expect to see based on your hair. Not just that, but we take warm care measures with patients’ comfort in mind.
