“Follicular Unit Extraction, also known as FUE, is a hair transplant technique that allows men and some women to regain their hair in hair transplant surgery.

In this minimally invasive procedure, the donor hair to be transplanted into the target areas is taken from the back of the scalp.

The removed follicular units are usually in groups of 1 to 4 and are placed in the target area to give patients a fuller hair appearance.

After this short information, let's take a look at what you need to know about FUE.

1) It is the Most Popular Hair Transplant Surgery

FUE hair transplantFUE is the most popular hair transplant procedure performed today because of the precise and natural-looking results it can provide. It is also more minimally invasive compared to previous methods.

2) Longer Processing Time

longer processing timeThe FUE technique takes a longer surgical time. The advantage is that there are few or no visible scars in the donor area after the follicular units are removed.

The doctor places each follicular unit on the target area, mimicking the patient's natural growth pattern. Patients say that every minute spent during the FUE procedure is worth it.
 

3) No Scar

4) No General Anesthesia

6) Minimal Pain

Patients may experience some discomfort, but symptoms can be treated with over-the-counter pain medications.

7) Post-Operative Hair Loss is Normal

Because this is a normal part of the process. This is also a good sign because it means that your new hair is pushing out the transplanted hair and that is when growth begins!
 

8) FUE Results are Permanent

The transplanted hair is donor hair, which is generally resistant to the tendency of balding or thinning, so they do not fall out. Patients may experience hair loss or thinning in other areas, especially with age.
