More people are getting bald at a young age nowadays. A follicular unit hair transplant, commonly referred to as Follicular unit extraction is a method to transplant hair that gives a natural look. Though the hair transplant method started long back in 1939 in Japan, the outcome of these transplants was looking very unnatural. It looked like some patches of hair were pasted. Natural-looking hair transplantation started in 1995 when the method of transplanting individual hair follicles was discovered. Now it can be performed at Look Natural Hair Restoration.
Majorly, there are two types of hair transplantation –
- Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) and
- Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT)
In the FUT type, a strip of skin is cut from the backside of the head, and the hair follicles are extracted. These hair follicles are then planted to the bald area of the head to grow hair. It covers the balding hairline adequately and looks natural.
The Follicular hair transplant is done articulately as the bald spots are covered with the exact size of the cut strip. The individual hair follicles removed from the strip of around 0.4 to 0.6 inches (usual size) are re-inserted on the scalp. The follicular unit hair transplant procedure can last for 6 to 8 hours.
The procedure of hair transplant:
After drawing your hairline, the surgeon will decide the area of extraction. Sedative or local anaesthesia is applied.
- The area of extraction will be trimmed by around two mm.
