FUE Hair Transplant Procedure


FOLLICULAR UNIT EXTRACTION “FUE”– WHAT TO EXPECT.
Patients undergoing an FUE hair transplant procedure often have many questions in relation to the procedure, the post operative care as well as how they will look in the days, weeks and months following their hair transplant. Here we will answer some of the more common questions that FUE patients have;

DO I HAVE TO SHAVE MY HEAD TO HAVE A HAIR TRANSPLANT?
For patients undergoing an FUE hair transplant in most cases the entire head must be shaved on the day of the procedure. If you would rather not shave your head for your procedure then a Follicular Unit Transplantation “FUT” transplant may be appropriate where shaving the entire head is not needed and only the strip of hair to be removed is trimmed.

I DON’T NORMALLY SHAVE MY HEAD, WON’T EVERYONE NOTICE IF I SUDDENLY HAVE A SHAVED HEAD FOR MY FUE PROCEDURE?
For patients considering an FUE procedure who do not normally wear their hair short, we recommend a gradual change in your grooming to a shorter hairstyle over the months and weeks before your transplant. This allows your friends and family to get used to a tighter cut. Once the procedure has been completed and the transplanted hair begins to grow you can gradually let your hair grow longer again.

HOW DO I KNOW IF FUT OR FUE IS THE RIGHT CHOICE FOR ME?
Your consultant surgeon should advise you on the best technique for you. FUE, in general, is more appropriate for patients who like to cut their hair short or who may have a limited donor supply. For patients with white or fine hair or undergoing a large hair transplant procedure, FUT is usually the recommended technique.

IF I UNDERGO AN FUE HAIR TRANSPLANT WHAT WILL I LOOK LIKE IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE PROCEDURE?
As the head must be shaved in an FUE hair transplant the appearance of the skin immediately post operatively can be more obvious than in an FUT transplant where your own hair would give some camouflage in the initial post-operative period. For most patients immediately following an FUE hair transplant at HRBR there will be some redness in the recipient (where the hair is placed) and the donor areas (where the hair is taken). You will not however leave the clinic with bandages. The post operative instructions at HRBR require you to spray both areas with a special solution that should reduce this redness over the first few days. Following the post operative instructions carefully will also ensure that little or no scabbing will occur in the initial post operative period.

EYELASH TRANSPLANTS FOR WEAK Although a fairly new procedure, eyelash implants are rapidly growing in popularity. Originally developed to treat parts of the eyelid that did not have eyelids due to trauma, genetics, or alopecia, this procedure is also commonly used to enhance the appearance of existing eyelids. If eyelash damage occurs, it may be temporary. After six to twelve months, eyelash growth should return to some extent. If eyelash damage is permanent, eyelash implants can be used to replace lost eyelids. Process Completion An Eyelash Hair Transplant Surgery works like a hair or beard transplant. The donor's hair is taken from the back of the skull, then inserted into the eyelid via FUT strip surgery. The donor's hair should be carefully selected and taken from the margin on the backside of the skull. This is where the hair more closely resembles the hair of the eyelids In some cases, hair may be taken with the feet or hands, but this will involve an ...

Hair loss occurs in more than 60% of men and in about 10% of women. Although scalp hair loss can potentially increase the risk of actinic damage and skin cancer, male and female pattern baldness are conditions that, with few exceptions, are treated alternatively. Balding is a major concern for many people, and surgery to treat hair loss (ie, hair transplantation) is the most common cosmetic surgery procedure performed on men today. Nevertheless, the market for hair transplantation is very high for products that treat hair loss without surgery. What Causes Hair Loss? Hair loss can be part of the natural aging process, or as a result of heredity, hormone changes, medications, illness, or trauma, including burns and severe emotional stress. Some people experience hair loss due to a combination of these factors. Hair loss patterns also differ between men and women. People start hair loss in temples, hair in M ​​shape and in crown area ("bald spot"). Women usually see ha...
