| Description: | Strip transplant is still used today and used to be considered the highest standard hair restoration procedure available. The technique is now becoming less common. There are a few different reasons for that, including images of obvious of “plug” donor locations dominating someone’s hairline as well as the linear, long scar that the procedure left on the back of the head. The incision typically taken from the back of the head is due to the hairs that usually remain for men who’ve gone bald, as these healthy follicles have a higher success rate when being transferred.
The incision of hair follicles from this area is a risk when removing the strip. Great care has to be taken not to sever any follicles, and because of this, the success rate for strip transplant procedures is reduced. The follicular unit extraction (FUE) is the next best thing for hair transplants after FUT (follicular unit transplant). The treatment for FUE involves removing individual follicles with a punch device that makes a tiny hole and extracts the hair with its root intact.
