Follicular Unit Excision is a procedure that extracts or “harvests” donor hair during a follicular-unit hair transplant procedure. FUE hair transplant surgery uses an instrument to make a small circular incision around the follicular units, separating them from surrounding tissue. The unit is removed (pulled) from the scalp leaving an open area.
The process continues until enough follicular units are harvested for the intended hair restoration. This can take up to an hour and, in larger sessions, it may take two days. In seven to ten days, the donor wounds of approximately 1 mm in diameter will completely heal. There will be tiny white scarring in the hair at the back and sides.
This donor harvesting method, which removes follicular unit one-by-one from the scalp, is what distinguishes FUE from traditional Follicular Unit Transplants (FUT). In FUT, the donor hair is cut in one long, thin strip from the scalp and then dissected using a stereomicroscope into individual follicular cells.
The grafts will be harvested before the recipient sites are created. This is done by using a fine needlepoint tool. The recipient sites are where the follicular units will be placed. Both FUE and FUT are basically the same. The differences lie in the appearance of donor areas and the quality and number of grafts that are obtained with each technique.
Hair transplant in Turkey reviews
1. Preparation for hair transplant
The initial step in Hair Transplant Surgery is to remove hair follicles at the back of your head and move them to the areas that are bald.
2. Trimming of the donor area
The donor area must be trimmed before the surgery can begin.
3. Preparation of the donor area for surgery
After the donor area hair is trimmed, it is administered local anesthesia.
4. The donor area was sutured and the tissue in the donor area was removed.
The donor area containing the bald resistant hairs follicles must be surgically removed and sutured.
5. Sutured donor area to be combed with hair
The sutures are concealed from the patient’s hair, which are combed directly over them. The sutures are usually removed within ten days of hair transplant surgery.
6. Donor tissue is trimmed and grafted into follicular units
The surgical technicians then use microscopes to view donor tissue and prepare follicular units hair transplants.
7. Preparation of the Bald Recipient Area
After the local anesthesia has been administered to the patient, the recipient area that is balding is ready for surgery. No trimming or removal of hair is necessary at the top.
8. Incisions in the balding regions
Follicular Unit Grafts can be placed through tiny incisions made in the recipient’s area in an irregular pattern.
9. Grafts are placed according to their densities
The smallest grafts, one and two, are placed in front of your hairline. Three and four (denser that one and two) will be placed behind.
10. After the Hair Transplant Surgery
The patient’s operated area will show tiny incisions made with very short hair after the hair transplant surgery.
11. Closing the Hair Transplant Surgery
Within a week, the incision marks will heal naturally. The redness in the recipient’s area disappears.
1) Transplanted hair behaves just like natural hair. It sheds in between two and four weeks. The roots then start to sprout hair naturally and will continue to do this for a lifetime.
2) Local anesthesia is painless and allows the patient to go home that same day.
3) A hair transplant is different than non-surgical hair loss.
4) A hair transplant doesn’t guarantee you will get a full crop of hair. The result can vary from person to person.
There is no solution for every case of baldness. It all depends on the individual case.
Aftercare:
Every patient receives an aftercare kit from Hestanbul that includes information about how to care for transplanted hairs and prevent scarring. Our after-care kits contain all the necessary supplies, such as shampoos and creams, antibacterial solutions, pain-killers, and other products. They are specifically designed to be gentle on the hairs and transplanted hairs following FUE, and to reduce healing time.
Transplantation is basically about moving (transplanting the balding hair follicles) from the back to the top of your head.
It can take up to 7 hours, depending on which operation plan you choose.
You won't feel any pain because hair transplants are done under local anesthesia.
This is a common question. There are very few reports of hair transplant risks. Before you have the procedure performed, don't hesitate to talk with your specialist.
After the hair transplant, you can resume your normal routine and work in 2-3 days. However, the crusty appearance on the transplanted areas will continue for 12-15 more days.
