      Can Follicular Unit Transplant Deal with Hair Fall and Damaged Hair?

      Follicular Unit Transplant (FUT) is a highly effective surgical procedure designed to address hair fall and damaged hair. FUT involves the surgical removal of a thin strip of tissue containing healthy hair follicles from the donor area, typically the back or sides of the scalp. These follicles are then carefully dissected and transplanted into the recipient area, to create new hairlines to improve hair thinning.

      The key to FUT’s success lies in the precision of the transplantation process, ensuring that the transplanted follicles match the natural angle, direction, and density of the existing hair. By doing so, FUT provides a permanent solution for hair restoration, significantly improving hairline, hair density, and overall appearance.

      Understanding Follicular Unit Transplant

      In Follicular Unit Transplantation (also sometimes also known as the “strip method”) a long, thin piece of tissue is removed from the back of the scalp. Individual follicular units are then removed from the strip using stereo-microscopic dissection.

      Once the follicles have been harvested, the wound is closed leaving behind a single, very fine linear scar.

      With FUT, hair is harvested from the mid donor zone where most the hair is permanent. For this reason, patients with limited hair availability in the donor area are often recommended for FUT treatment. With FUT, follicles are carefully harvested, keeping the protective tissue intact so grafts are robust and higher-quality.

      The Benefits of Follicular Unit Transplant

      Firstly, it provides a permanent solution for receding hairline and hair thinning, as the transplanted hair follicles are genetically resistant to further hair loss.

      Secondly, Follicular Unit Transplant allows for the transplantation of a large number of grafts in a single session, making it suitable for individuals with advanced hair loss. Additionally, FUT results in minimal scarring, which is easily hidden by surrounding hair, and it typically has a shorter recovery period compared to other surgical techniques.

      Lastly, FUT delivers natural-looking results, ensuring that the transplanted hair blends seamlessly with the existing hair, providing patients with an improved and more confident appearance.

      Empower yourself with knowledge and make informed decisions as you find answers to commonly asked questions about our services

      How does FUT differ from FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction)?

      FUT involves the removal of a strip of scalp, while FUE involves the extraction of individual hair follicles directly from the donor area. FUE does not leave a linear scar, while FUT does.

      Who is a suitable candidate?

      Suitable candidates for FUT typically include individuals with significant hair loss or those who require a high number of grafts.

      How is the donor area selected for FUT?

      The donor area is usually the back or sides of the scalp, where hair is genetically programmed to grow robustly.

      Is FUT a painful procedure?

      Local anaesthesia is administered to the donor and recipient areas, ensuring that patients do not feel pain during the procedure.

      What is the duration of an FUT procedure?

      An FUT procedure can take several hours to complete.

      Are there any risks or complications?

      Like any surgical procedure, there are potential risks, including infection, scarring, and complications related to anaesthesia.
