Follicular unit extraction (FUE)

Individual follicular units containing 1 to 4 hairs are removed from the back of the head, under local anesthesia, using a special blade, leaving a small open hole.

The process is repeated until the surgeon has enough follicles to cover the area that needs the hair. The surgeon uses very small micro blades or fine needles to puncture the sites receiving the grafts, and places them in a predetermined density, pattern, and angle to promote a realistic hair pattern.

FUE gives very natural results. There is no linear incision on the back of the head and it doesn't leave a linear scar. Because the method consists in removing individual follicles, only small, punctuate scars remain. They are virtually invisible. Another advantage is the minimised post-surgical pain and discomfort.

Extraction phase:
Hair follicles are extracted one by one from the donor area using a specifically designed disposable tool with a diameter of 1mm or less. The follicles are then kept at a specific temperature and in a solution that enhances their development after placement.

Placement phase:
The hair follicles are implanted directly into the region suffering from hair loss, after the prior creation of a small hole or slit (less than 1 millimetre).

Natural result:
Full control of the density, direction and angle of the placement of each graft, ensures 100% natural results, coupled with a high success rate.
