Hair Transplantation Fue

 

The Fue is a hair transplant method and is an abbreviation of Follicular Unit Excision. It is currently one of the most popular procedure worlds over. The other is Fut i-e Follicular Unit Transplant. The basic of both methodologies is same and that is surgery.


Hair transplant work for everyone. Some constraints are associated with health, genetics and age limit of patients. In Fue hair transplant procedure, surgeon manually use micro punch to extract individual follicles from back of the scalp or any other part of patient`s body like chest, beard etc. Then he creates a series of incisions in the balding section of scalp for grafting the removed hairs. It didn't require stitches or stapling at the incisions section. The surgical procedure is not so painful because most dermatologist apply local anesthesia to numb the scalp. Once all portions under treatment are totally numb, there's no discomfort. It is pertinent to mention here that the hair start re-growing in the grafted & donor area within few months time and attain original status. The technology provides promising results & has v high success rate. However, failure could occur if mishandling in post operative care or spread of infection due to donor site or by unknown source.




The technology is less invasive. Tiny scars in the form of fine white dots are left at places from where follicles were removed, mostly not noticeable on healing. The intensity of these dots at places depends upon how much follicles in number were required to extract.


Generally top hair transplant results are achievable if surgeon is capable & experience hand. However, optimal results vary from patient to patient due to biochemistry differences. The cost of grafting in Fue in international markets varies from country to country and city to city. Another factor in it is level of expertise / experience of dermatologist. Generally it ranges from $ 3000/ to $12000/ per session or $ 1 to $ 4 per graft. However if anyone manage mega session (more than 4000 graft in one session), the overall price is on the lower side because of use of same disposal unit for extended extraction in same session. However, Fue process is completed in multiple sittings, the total cost may vary from $ 20,000 to $ 40,000 or more. It is also to be noted her that the body hair transplant or facial hair graft would had comparatively much higher cost. Usually it is not less than $ 12 per graft anywhere in the world.


A new variant of Fue has been developed which is called NeoGraft. This technology is more innovative. It involved simultaneous removal and emplacement of follicles by use of semi automatic tools. That is why it generates almost 100% results in lesser time but with heavier price. These higher prices are compensated in terms of, minimum stressful service and guaranteed successes.
