FUT Hair Transplant

Hair loss can significantly affect self-confidence and overall appearance. Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT), also known as the strip method of hair transplantation, is a well-established surgical technique that provides natural-looking and long-lasting hair restoration results. It is particularly beneficial for individuals with advanced hair loss who require a larger number of grafts.

FUT hair transplantation involves carefully harvesting a strip of hair-bearing skin from the donor area, usually at the back of the scalp, and then separating it into individual follicular units for transplantation into areas affected by hair loss. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia and is customized according to the patient's hair pattern, age, and aesthetic goals.

FUT Hair Transplant

What Is FUT Hair Transplant?

In FUT hair transplantation, a thin strip of scalp containing healthy hair follicles is surgically removed from the donor area. The harvested tissue is then meticulously dissected into individual follicular units and implanted into areas experiencing hair thinning or baldness.

  • Provides a large number of grafts in a single session
  • Suitable for moderate to severe hair loss
  • Uses naturally growing hair follicles
  • Produces permanent and natural-looking results
  • Allows optimal utilization of donor hair
