Hair transplant techniques
Hair transplant technique is broadly performed by 2 different techniques which are differentiated based on the harvesting of follicular grafts. These hair transplant techniques include:
1. FUT (Follicular unit transplantation or strip technique): FUT hair transplant technique employs harvesting of a strip from the donor area on the scalp which is then segregated to dissect individual graft. These harvested individual grafts are then transplanted at the recipient bald area.
2. FUE (follicular unit extraction): FUE technique is employed by extracting individual hair follicles from the donor area which are then directly transplanted to the recipient bald area.
These hair transplant techniques are opted as per their indications according to individual patient needs and requirements. FUT hair transplant technique is chosen where there is need of higher number of follicular units as in extensive bald cases. FUR technique offers the provision of harvesting 3000-3500 follicular grafts. FUE technique is a preferred technique in facial hair transplant cases and initial bald cases as they offer the provision of extracting 2000-2500 follicular units.
Nowadays, hair loss sufferers are demanding high density hair transplant or even advanced bald cases needs appropriate coverage which cannot be successfully done with either of the techniques. When these cases are considered, combination technique comes into place which offers the provision of harvesting more than 4000 follicular units. The combination technique is performed by incorporating both FUT and FUE techniques and efficiently provides a high number of follicular units.
