Contact SupplierWhat is FUT Hair Transplant? It’s complete process?
To understand the FUT hair transplant, we first need to understand a few terms:
Grafts/ Follicles: hair basically grow in a group of 2-5 hair. This combined group is known as graft or follicles. These grafts and follicles are help together with the help of a root, which is embedded in skin.
Donor area: is the area which is capable of giving hair to bald areas of the head. This area is usually at the back side of the head or on the sides of the head. This area is capable of giving hair to the bald areas of the head. From this area the grafts of follicles are obtained.
Recipient area: This area is the receiver of the hair follicles. This area is basically the bald area of the head. In this area, very minute holes are dug with the help of a machine so that the extracted follicles from donor area along with roots can be transplanted into this bald area.
This technique is older than FUE technique and its full form is Follicular Unit Transplantation. In this technique basically hair from the back and side of the head are extracted surgically in a strip form along with the roots of the hair. Before that anesthesia is given to numb the area for extraction. The hair on the back and sides of the head remain for long time intact on the scalp because hair in this area are not prone to baldness in most of the people. However, exceptions are there.
Some people don’t have hair even at the back and sides of the head. Such people need not to worry as science has developed another technique for them that is called body hair transplant. This technique is explained under body hair transplant section. Then from this strip one by one follicles are extracted along with roots and transplanted surgically on the bald areas of the head.
