FUE hair transplant

Minimal invasiveness

With the FUE method, individual hair follicles are removed from the donor area using small round instruments in order to carefully extract the grafts. In contrast to the FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation) method that was often used in the past, where an entire strip of skin is removed, the FUE technique is less invasive. It only results in minimal scars and barely visible incisions.

Natural appearance

As the hair follicles are harvested individually, they can be transplanted precisely into the bald or thin area. As the hair grows naturally and behaves like the existing hair, this leads to an attractive aesthetic result.

Minor complications

Compared to other procedures, the FUE method generally involves fewer risks and complications. The risk of infection is lower as no large incisions or stitches are required. As the wounds heal faster due to their small size, the healing time is also shorter.

No general anesthesia required

In most cases, general anesthesia is not required for FUE hair transplantation. Local anesthetics are used to numb the donor and recipient regions, making the experience more comfortable for the patient. This reduces the risk and potential complications associated with general anesthesia.

Weak to nonexistent scarring

In FUE hair transplantation, the hair follicles are removed through a few round incisions. Because these incisions are so small, the scars are minimal and often barely noticeable. This allows the patient to wear their hair in different styles without the scars being visible.

Durability of the transplanted hair

As each individual hair follicle is harvested and transplanted, the survival rate of the transplanted hair is high. Follicles should be handled carefully and placed immediately in the recipient area to ensure that the hair continues to grow and remains there permanently.

Fast implantation and short extraction times

As FUE hair transplantation is minimally invasive, implantation is generally quite quick. Minimal recovery time means that most patients can return to their normal activities within a few days of the procedure.

Experienced surgeons

An experienced surgeon with the necessary knowledge and experience is a crucial prerequisite for the success of the FUE method. By choosing an experienced surgeon, potential risks can be reduced and optimal results can be achieved.

Individualization

The FUE method enables individualized adaptation to the needs of each patient. As each hair follicle is harvested individually, the surgeon can tailor the transplant to the patient’s natural hair growth pattern, resulting in a uniform and natural appearance.

Versatility

The FUE method is not only suitable for the treatment of scalp hair loss, but also for the transplantation of body hair, beard hair and eyebrow hair. It is adaptable and can be used on different parts of the body to achieve the desired result.

Long lasting results

Hair transplanted using the FUE method is usually permanent. They develop normally and require no further care. The patient can cut and style their hair as usual without this having any effect on the transplanted hair.

Patient satisfaction

FUE hair transplantation enjoys a high level of patient satisfaction due to its effectiveness and safety. Many patients report successful results and increased self-confidence after the treatment.

In the FUE hair transplantation method, the individual hair roots are first loosened very precisely using the modern micromotor. It is important that the grafts (hair roots) are not damaged during the loosening process.

In the second step, the grafts are harvested from the donor area.

The harvested grafts are then stored in a biotin solution, as the biotin solution continues to supply the grafts with the necessary nutrients. This process is very important as the biotin solution prevents the grafts from dying.

In the final step, the grafts are transplanted into the recipient area. Depending on the hair situation, the grafts are inserted using the percutaneous method, sapphire method or DHI method.
