What is FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation)?

FUT, or Follicular Unit Transplantation, is a classic hair restoration method in which a thin strip of scalp is removed from the donor area, usually at the back of the head. The strip is then carefully dissected into individual follicular units and implanted into thinning or balding areas. FUT is ideal for patients seeking high-density hair restoration. 

Who is it For?

  • Patients with extensive hair loss or baldness.
  • Individuals seeking high-density transplantation in a single session.
  • Suitable for men and women with healthy donor areas.
  • Those who want long-lasting, permanent hair restoration.

How the Procedure Works

  • Consultation & Design: Hairline, density, and donor area are assessed by specialists.
  • Strip Harvesting: A thin strip of scalp is removed from the donor area under local anesthesia.
  • Graft Preparation: The strip is dissected into individual follicular units under a microscope.
  • Implantation: Follicular units are carefully implanted into thinning areas following natural hair growth patterns.
  • Post-Procedure Care: Detailed instructions ensure optimal healing and graft survival.

Recovery & Downtime

  • Mild redness, swelling, or soreness at donor and recipient areas may occur.
  • Sutures at the donor site are removed after 7–10 days.
  • Most patients can resume daily activities within 5–7 days, avoiding strenuous activity for 10–14 days.
  • Full hair growth is visible 6–12 months post-procedure.
