What is FUE hair restoration?
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) or single follicular unit extraction is one of the best methods of hair transplant. This new and improved technique of hair transplantation has changed the entire perspective of hair loss. During this approach, the surgeon extracts the individual follicles into 1 to 4 groups. After detaching them to the donor area they are transplanted to the bald area.
What can you expect from a FUE hair transplant?
FUE hair transplant is a minimally invasive technique that is performed under local anesthesia. The entire procedure takes around 8 to 10 hours. The patient needs to lie on the back and side. The patient should follow the necessary instructions given by the surgeon.
It is normal to experience swelling, discomfort, and peeling on the surgical site. In most cases, it is normal and it will subside within a few weeks. After the treatment, make sure that you follow the instructions given by the surgeon for better and improved results.
What results are expected from FUE hair transplant?
The surgeon will place the grafts skillfully and strategically, which helps the patient to have natural hair growth within 8 to 12 months. After the surgery, there is no scar on the scalp which means others won’t be able to tell that you have undergone the treatment.
Undergoing the surgery from an experienced and qualified surgeon means quality treatment and permanent hair growth.
What is the success rate of FUE hair transplant?
The success rate of hair restoration is going to depend on the individual’s health. During the consultation, you will be told in detail the precautionary measures you need to take so that you get the best possible results. Make sure if you come across a surgeon who directly tells you to get the treatment, without consultation it should be considered as a red sign. So, consult the surgeon who gives you detailed information about the treatment and tell you the number of grafts needed to cover the bald spots. If the patient’s condition is severe then you need to undergo multiple sessions for increasing the success rate.
No matter what you do, make sure the surgeon you are consulting is the best. He needs to be experienced and trained. If he can give you an understanding of the treatment and let you ask questions about the treatment then you will know you have made the right choice. The skilled surgeon will make you understand the treatment in detail along with the possible complications.
