Hair transplant is a procedure in which a Dermatological surgeon, transplants hair from the occipital area (back of the head), beard or body hair to a bald area of the head.
Two main techniques are available: – Follicular unit extraction (FUT) and Follicular unit extraction (FUE).
FUE is a common and advanced procedure as it is scar-free and require no stitches.
It is a minor outpatient procedure done under local anaesthesia, and the patient is conscious and comfortable throughout surgery, and it generally lasts for about 6 to 12 hours.
FUE mainly involves three steps: –
- Slit creation: – Most crucial step as it determines the angle and direction of the hair. The surgeon makes tiny slits (holes) with a needle in your scalp that is receiving the hair transplant.
- Harvesting: -Our doctors carefully harvest the grafts from the donor area with the help of specialised punches.
- Implantation: – Our technicians carefully implant the grafts with no damage to hair roots.
