FUE - Follicular Unit Extraction
This procedure is recommended for those that wish to have their receding hairlines made thicker.
The F.U.E. is a revolutionary new transplant method. This procedure is recommended for those that wish to have their hairlines or receding thicker. Instead of using the traditional method (FUT) we can remove much finer hairs. But saying this not everyone is ideal for this procedure especially if you have to remove anything over 3000 hairs as you are still balding and you require us to addresse other areas later.
It is our experience that to much hair gets harvested the first time leaving the patient in need of more hairs later and there is not any available in donor area.
FUE Technical
The way it is done is by removing hair from the donor area at the back of your head using an extractor and inserting them into the thinning area using an implant needle. This method is not recommended for person seeking volume as it is a much more labour intensive procedure using much finer technique.
The healing time is only one week as there is little or no bleeding or scaring. During our consultation we will explain all the various options available to you.
