What is FUE Hair Transplantation?
FUE hair transplant, which treats hair loss and baldness permanently, is a cosmetic hair follicle transplantation treatment performed with local anesthesia. Hair transplantation with FUE is the most effective and permanent technology discovered in the fight against hair loss and allows us to achieve the best results regardless of the underlying cause of hair loss.
Thinning hair, regression in the hairline, baldness in the temples and complete baldness are symptoms of hair loss, which can have many different underlying causes. Although hair transplantation is still primarily discussed among men, the number of female patients experiencing hair loss or male pattern baldness is steadily increasing. The FUE method is the basis of hair transplant surgery, and its development is largely responsible for the current state of the field.
Thanks to FUE, which was developed with the discovery that the follicular unit can be transplanted as an organ, it has been possible to work independently with each hair follicle. Thus, many advantages such as interfering with the angles of the hair follicles with each other, using the grafts in different parts of the head according to their thickness, planning the growth direction of the hair follicle in a way to achieve the best aesthetic result are obtained.
How is FUE Hair Transplantation Performed?
Nuchal grafts are collected, channels are created in the recipient area and follicular units are implanted. This is the simplest method to perform FUE method. However, each person’s hair transplant strategy is unique. The area of the head that needs to be transplanted, its width and the type of hair loss play a role in determining how much it will cost. This is the most important aspect to consider when organizing a hair transplant.
The stages of FUE Procedure may vary in detail depending on the amount of grafts taken from the donor area and the number of channels opened in the recipient area. For example, although it is common practice to start by taking grafts from the donor area, it may be preferable to start by opening the channels to minimize the time that hair follicles spend exposed. Before planting, grafts harvested with FUE are sorted by thickness and rootedness in the donor area. This is the most critical and sensitive part of the FUE procedure. Each graft’s exposure to the elements is carefully timed to reduce the risk of destruction of the hair follicle. Some things, such as the order in which hair follicles are transplanted, are more sensitive than others.
