FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) hair transplant is one of the most advanced and minimally invasive techniques for hair restoration. In this procedure, individual hair follicles are extracted from a donor area (usually the back of the scalp) and transplanted into the thinning or balding areas of the scalp.
At Medixir Clinic, we use the latest FUE technique to offer our patients a natural-looking and permanent solution for hair loss. This technique has gained popularity due to its precision, minimal scarring, and quick recovery time.
The FUE procedure begins with the extraction of individual follicular units from the donor area using a small, specialized tool. Each follicle is carefully removed to ensure it remains intact and viable for transplantation. This is done under local anesthesia, so the patient is comfortable throughout the procedure.
Once the follicles are extracted, they are meticulously placed in the thinning or bald areas of the scalp. The surgeon will create tiny incisions to ensure the follicles are transplanted at the correct angle and density, closely mimicking the natural hair growth pattern.
The FUE technique offers several advantages over traditional hair transplant methods, such as FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation). Since individual follicles are harvested without the need for a large incision or strip of tissue, FUE results in minimal scarring and a quicker recovery.
Post-surgery, patients may experience slight redness or swelling in the donor and recipient areas. These side effects typically subside within a few days. Patients are advised to avoid touching or scratching the transplanted area to ensure optimal healing.
Within the first few weeks after the procedure, the transplanted hair may shed, but this is a normal part of the process. New hair will begin to grow from the transplanted follicles within 3 to 6 months, and full results are typically visible after 12 to 18 months.
FUE hair transplant is permanent, as the transplanted follicles are resistant to the hormones that cause hair loss. The results offer a natural, fuller appearance, and the transplanted hair will continue to grow for many years.
At Medixir Clinic, we are dedicated to providing our patients with high-quality care and excellent results. Our expert surgeons will guide you through every step of the FUE hair transplant process, from consultation to post-surgery care.
