What is a FUT Hair Transplant Procedure?

FUT, also known as Follicular Unit Transplantation (strip method), is a surgical hair restoration technique. It entails transferring hair follicles in good health from a donor location—usually the sides and back of the scalp—to the area losing hair in the recipient. These follicles are naturally resistant to balding hormones, ensuring long-lasting hair growth.

Benefits of FUT Hair Transplant

Choosing FUT hair transplant offers several advantages:

• Natural-Looking Results: FUT utilizes naturally occurring follicular units containing 1-4 hairs for transplantation. This meticulous approach ensures a natural hairline and density that blends seamlessly with existing hair.
• Minimally Invasive: FUT is a minimally invasive procedure compared to traditional hair transplant techniques. This translates to shorter recovery times and less discomfort for patients.
• Effective for Various Hair Loss Patterns: FUT is a versatile procedure that can address various hair loss patterns, including receding hairlines, male pattern baldness, and thinning hair in women.
• Permanent Hair Growth: The transplanted hair follicles are genetically resistant to balding, meaning the newly transplanted hair will grow continuously throughout your life, just like your existing hair.
• Cost-Effective: FUT can be more cost-effective than other hair restoration procedures, especially for individuals requiring a more significant number of grafts.

The FUT Hair Transplant Procedure:

On the day of the surgery, you can expect the following:

• Donor Area Strip Extraction: Dr. John Kehan will carefully remove a thin strip of scalp containing healthy hair follicles from the designated donor area. The strip size will depend on the number of grafts needed for your hair restoration goals.
• Follicular Unit Dissection: Under high magnification, a team of skilled technicians meticulously dissects the removed scalp strip into individual follicular units for transplantation.

• Graft Placement: Dr. John Kehan meticulously transplants the individual follicular units into the recipient sites with utmost precision and artistry, ensuring optimal growth potential.
• Scalp Closure: The donor area is then meticulously sutured closed, leaving a minimal linear scar easily concealed by surrounding hair.
