Looking beautiful is what everyone wants but due to old age, many people face difficulties in health, skin, hair and much more. For hair, there is always an alternative way depending on the nature of your hair is.
There are two main hair transplant techniques that are regularly used: the FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation) and the FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction). Both these methods are effective in restoring thicker, natural-looking hair.
WHAT IS A FUE HAIR TRANSPLANT?
Each individual follicular unit is harvested from the scalp during FUE hair transplantation. Hair follicles are destroyed in a random pattern, allowing your doctor to collect hair from the donor area with less visible thinning. Hair is collected by small circular incisions on the scalp with Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE).
BENEFITS OF FUE HAIR TRANSPLANT:
Grafts of Superior Quality:
The ARTAS FUE computerized technology enables real-time 3D analysis and calculation of each hair follicle’s properties. This enables the robot to identify the healthiest and most powerful follicles for harvesting and transplantation.
Natural-looking outcomes:
Hairs are harvested and transplanted in their natural groupings using the ARTAS FUE procedure, which leaves no linear scar. This gives your hair a more natural appearance and lets you wear it as short as you like without fear of a noticeable scar.
There is no discomfort during or after treatment:
The FUE technique, like a trip to the dentist, uses a local anaesthetic to ensure little discomfort during the process. Many patients report minimal pain during or after their FUE transplant because it is a minimally intrusive technique.
Recovery Time Is Limited
Because no scalpel or stitches are required during the procedure, the healing time after an FUE transplant is short, with many people returning to their normal activities within a few days. The treatment itself is only 8 hours long.
Scarring in the donor area is minimal.
Because the follicles are extracted at random, the donor area’s appearance and density are minimally altered. Because the donor area seems undamaged and unmodified, FUE is the procedure of choice for persons who like to wear their hair quite short in the back.
CAN A FUE HAIR TRANSPLANT BE SUCCESSFUL?
With graft survival rates of 90%, FUE transplants can be just as successful as the more traditional FUT procedure. The procedure’s success rate with Robotic FUE technology can be as high as 100%. The success of the procedure is determined by the doctor’s competence, expertise, and experience.
WHAT IS A FUT HAIR TRANSPLANT?
A long, thin piece of tissue is taken from the rear of the scalp during Follicular Unit Transplantation (also known as the “strip method”). Stereo-microscopic dissection is then used to remove individual follicular units from the strip.
The wound is closed once the follicles have been collected, leaving a single, very fine linear scar.
FUT HAIR TRANSPLANTS BENEFITS:
Time to Recover is Controllable:
A FUT operation has a relatively short recovery time, usually between 10 and 12 days. Because of the risk for swelling where the scalp strip was removed, some patients have reported more difficulty with FUT than with other procedures. Pain medication is usually provided in these situations.
Follicle Survival Rates Are Higher:
Hair is taken from the mid-donor zone, where the majority of the hair is permanent, in FUT. As a result, FUT is frequently indicated for individuals with low hair supply in the donor location. Follicles are meticulously extracted with FUT, leaving the protective tissue intact, resulting in more robust and higher-quality grafts.
Natural-looking outcomes:
You’ll have a very thin, linear scar that’s no more than 1mm in diameter or smaller after the procedure. This allows it to blend in with the surrounding hair and be nearly unnoticeable.
A FUT hair transplant involves transplanting a patient’s hair in small, naturally occurring groups of 1–4 hairs. This helps you to have fuller, more natural-looking hair without disclosing the fact that you had a hair transplant.
With subsequent sessions, there is no additional scarring.:
There is only one scar, regardless of how many procedures are performed on a patient. The FUE process, on the other hand, creates a little, circular scar with each follicular unit removed.
HOW SUCCESSFUL IS A FUT HAIR TRANSPLANT?
The success rate of any procedure, including FUT, is determined by the physician’s ability. FUT transplants with success rates of 95-98 percent can be performed by a qualified medical specialist. It’s typical for transplanted follicles to fall out before regrowing permanent follicles; this is a natural part of your hair’s lifecycle and transplant process.
What Is the Best Hair Transplant Method?
Both procedures are good choices for men and women who are experiencing hair loss. When deciding between FUE and FUT, talk to your surgeon about which treatment is best for you.
During the appointment, you and your doctor should talk about your objectives and goals, as well as the number of follicular units needed to accomplish your desired coverage and the final design of your hairline. This will assist you and your surgeon in determining which hair transplantation method is ideal for you.
