FUE Hair Transplant to Solve Your Thinning Hair: If you are experiencing thinning hair at the back of your head, follicular unit extraction, also known as FUE, is your best hair transplantation solution. There are two forms of FUE hair transplantation: A Basic FUE which is the elementary forms of FUE which can reliably utilize only hairs from the middle of the back and sides of the head. It is of course limited. The other form of FUE is the advanced FUE which is exemplified by the UGraft, which reliably utilizes in addition to head hair, hairs from the nape of the head and neck, all body hair grafts, beard as well as tightly curled hair found in individuals of African descent.

Basic FUE hair transplant practitioners might need to perform an FUE test to ensure that they can extract your grafts intact consistently. This is especially the case with afro textured and body hair. Dr. Umar uses the UGraft to perform FUE credibly and consistently in the vast majority of patients. Using the UGraft system even the kinkiest Afro-textured hair can be extracted successfully without the need for pre-testing. He maintains that he has performed the FUE procedure successfully in several patients of African descent, even in instances where other clinics have failed.

So when is a pretest needed before FUE?

FUE Hair Transplant to Solve Your Thinning Hair

One of the major benefits of an FUE hair transplant is that the scarred area heals faster than it does with the “strip harvesting” method.

Once an FUE procedure has been performed it is unlikely that the hair in the donor area will begin to thin. Also, there is no strip scarring as a result of this type of hair transplant.

On average, the patient’s donor zone will stay healthy for many years. FUE is a safe hair transplant procedure that minimizes downtime post-surgery. Additionally, since FUE hair transplantation is minimally invasive, many patients are able to resume daily activities as normal, within only days of surgery. Hair loss victims no longer need worry about the unsightly strip scar that comes with the traditional strip harvesting method of hair transplantation. FUE yields a much more cosmetically appealing result, free of obvious scarring.
