Follicular Unit Extraction Advancements Benefits
Advanced follicular unit extraction in the form of the UGraft has led to several advantages in hair transplantation in the following ways:
- Eyebrow transplantation: the use of specifically selected donor hairs to restore thin or bald eyebrows. People may lose eyebrow hair for congenital reasons, an accident, or over-plucking. Ideal donor hair comes from the legs.
- Hairline Design or Hairline Refinement: the use of nape hair or other fine hair to build a softer more gradual hairline. Often done as a corrective procedure after another surgery.
- Body hair to head transplant: an advanced form of FUE that incorporates the use of body hair for donor sources. This can include the beard, shoulders, chest, stomach, arms, and legs.
- Facial hair to head transplant: an advanced form of FUE that incorporates the use of only or mostly beard hair as the donor source.
- Tightly curled scalp hair of individuals of African descent can be harvested universally in all without the need for pre-testing
