Advantages and procedure of FUE hair transplantation
Get your full and beautiful hair back with the FUE single hair group extraction in ID hair transplants! The FUE treatment is probably the best development in the field of hair transplantation in recent years. Due to its technique, it is currently the most efficient and pleasant method for restoring complete head hair. This method requires no incisions and therefore no stitches, but most importantly, it leaves no permanent scars after the treatment. It thus eliminates the weaknesses of the previously standard FUT treatment. With the current method, individual hairs or groups of four hairs are taken and transplanted into the bald areas instead of removing entire strips of skin. This is an incredible advantage and allows for optimal results.
The FUE hair transplant procedure
What you need to consider and the benefits of FUE hair transplantation:
- Less stress for you as there are no incisions, stitches or scars: The small punctual removal sites heal by themselves in a few days.
- Only tiny points are created on the scalp, which heal particularly quickly. Therefore, no scars remain after the treatment is completed, which is especially important for people who prefer a short hairstyle.
- The treatment requires precision, so modern technical equipment is necessary and the duration of the treatment is comparatively longer. Our team and our equipment meet these requirements.
- FUE hair transplantation is extremely efficient and promising, and it gives you back the natural look of your hair.
- Up to 3000 grafts can be replanted in a single session. If the hair loss is not too severe, this is enough for dense new hair.
Removal of hair follicles in FUE hair transplantation
At the beginning of the treatment, hair follicles are taken from the back of the neck. A local anaesthetic is administered to ensure a comfortable procedure. Our modern practice equipment allows for extremely precise and clean work. The hair follicles are detached with a particularly narrow micromotor device. The loosened grafts are then removed. The duration of this procedure varies depending on the number of grafts to be removed, but is usually around 2 hours.
Opening the canals for the implantation of the grafts
Once the hair follicles have been harvested, they are sorted and properly processed and are ready for implantation. You will then lie down on your back. To open the canals for the FUE hair transplant, the affected area is again locally anaesthetised. Then the process of opening the canals begins, which is done with another modern device called a micro-pen. These channels are finer than a needle and the hair follicles to be transplanted are inserted into these channels. It is of utmost importance that the direction, depth and width of the channels match the hair follicles. Our specialists make sure that this is guaranteed.
Insertion of the hair follicles in FUE hair transplantation
The final stage of FUE hair transplantation is that the hair follicles are implanted into the opened canals. The hair follicles are inserted one by one into the prepared canals. This process also takes different amounts of time depending on the requirements, but is usually around two hours. Once this process is complete, the treated area is not covered or bandaged, but remains open to ensure contact with the air.
Aftercare for FUE hair transplants
The area where the hair was implanted should be protected from any pressure or impact. The first dressing change is made a few days after the hair transplantation with the FUE hair transplantation method. With this method, no incisions or stitches are made. However, during the removal of the hair follicles, tiny wounds appear on the skin in the form of small dots. These usually heal completely and without residue within a week.
