Follicular Unit Extraction: Anatomic and Mechanical Technology

Follicular Unit Excision (FUE) is “incision” made around each follicular unit with a punching procedure to separates it from the tissue around it. The isolated units are then “extracted” from the scalp. Once removed from the donor area the follicular unit grafts are placed into the recipient region of the scalp. Thus, Follicular Unit “Excision” has two components, incision and extraction. The incision part of the procedure is what classifies FUE as a surgical procedure. Check- Hair Treatment in Nagpur The reason for clarifying FUE as surgical graft removal by excisions of hair and tissue is to make this term more scientifically, clinically and surgically accurate said Ricardo Mejia, MD, ISHRS Board Member and Chair of the Ad Hoc Committee on Issues Pertaining to the Unlicensed Practice of Medicine. Performed by qualified and properly trained hair restoration surgeons hair transplantation becomes more safe and highly effective procedure to correct hair loss. However, it is a cosmeti

FUE HAIR TRANSPLANT – newrootshairtransplant.com

The most important part of success in  FUE HAIR TRANSPLANT  is the quality of extraction of grafts which depends on the experience and skills of the surgeon doing it. FUE is a graft harvesting technique popularised in the last five years. Each follicular unit is present isolated individually which is extracted using a sharp metal tube, called a ‘punch’. The punch can be rotated to pass through the skin surface manually or by motor .

Indeed, FUE has been advertised by hair clinics as a scarless method as opposed to FUT. However, the graft extraction sites do heal leaving small scars which are visible as either white dots or hairless spots on close examination. The main challenge when doing FUE is to prevent significant hair follicle damage by the punch, which is called the ‘follicle transection rate’, FTR. Although FTR is widely negl
