FUE (Follicular Unit Excision) hair transplantation is a popular technique for transplanting hair by piercing and removing healthy hair follicles from the occipital area, which are resistant to testosterone. The hair roots are then transplanted to the desired area using a tool with a small piercing head less than 1 millimeter, without cutting or stitching the scalp. This is in contrast to a traditional hair transplant (strip FUT), which involves cutting the scalp into pieces and leaving a stitching wound.

The advantages of hair transplantation FUE (Follicular unit excision) include a shorter recovery time, quick wound healing, and the ability to return to work quickly. After the wound has healed, a small scar is formed, but it is distributed throughout the area, making it look as if there was no wound. Additionally, you can keep short hair after the hair transplantation.

There are several disadvantages to FUE (Follicular Unit Excision) hair transplantation, including a higher trauma rate for the hair compared to the FUT method. However, with the experience of skilled doctors and the use of modern equipment, the trauma rate has been significantly reduced. FUE also has a slightly higher hair sticking rate, almost as high as the FUT technique.

Suitable candidates for FUE hair transplantation
  1. Patients who want to have short hair in the future may be suitable candidates for FUE hair transplantation, as suture incision or FUT surgery may leave visible incisions on the back.
  2. Those at risk of large scar formation may be suitable candidates for FUE hair transplantation.

Patients with early baldness who need a small number of grafts (no more than 2000-2500) may also be suitable candidates for FUE hair transplantation.
