| Description: | FUE (follicular unit extraction) hair transplant surgery is much less invasive than conventional laryngeal surgery. It does not use a scalpel or staples or stitches. FUE is better described as "procedure" than "surgery". With this technique, the donor area is shaved to your skin so that individual follicular units (FUs) are exposed. When individual follicular units become visible, we can choose by removing the most ideal FUs. Generally, units with the most follicles are selected for removal. This allows us to maximize the number of follicles excised per graft. The average number of follicles per graft is much higher than conventional strip harvesting and microscopic dissection with this technique.
Each follicular unit is passed to the technicians after the unit has been removed, so that each graft is cut in excess tissue and brought to the perfect size for the particular recipient site. It is possible with the FUE technique, such as hairless FUE, that many changes are possible, in which only the follicular units to be removed are shaved and the surrounding fur remains longer. In this way, the entire transmitter area appears unchanged without any indication of procedure. This technique takes longer, but offers the advantage of not being fully detectable and is suitable for individuals who require zero post-operative interruptions. |
