Comparison of the FUE Technique and FUT Technique

In modern hair transplantations, a distinction is made between two procedures, the FUE technique (follicle unit extraction) and the FUT technique (follicle unit transplantation). The main difference here is the type of hair root removal. A comparison of these two variants of hair transplantation shows that the FUE technique is much more comfortable for the patient than the FUT technique.

FUE (Follicle Unit Extraction) and FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation)

Comparing these methods of hair transplantation, one finds that in both techniques the method of implanting the hair roots is the same. The difference between these two techniques is the type of hair root removal.

Comparison of the FUE technique and FUT technique In the FUT technique, a 15-20 cm long, 2-2.5 cm wide strip of hair from the scalp, from the area between both ears, where the hair is most resistant to failure, removed (cut out). Then the ends of the skin are sewn together. Since there is a seam, there remains a thin scar in the form of a line.

In the FUE technique, the hair is removed individually, hair by hair. 1-2 mm wide openings remain, but later on they heal themselves again, without seams, so well that one can not recognize them with the naked eye.

FUE Technique

The hair is removed from the donor area, where they are the most resistant to failure. If more hair roots are needed, you can extend the sampling area by removing it from the center. The hair roots are removed individually by microsurgical techniques using a micromotor, with a 0.6-1 mm diameter hollow needle, using the micro FUE technique.

The opening of the micromotor is so large that the hair can be absorbed and inserted into the scalp in the direction of growth. The hair, which is removed from the scalp, is held with micro-instruments and carefully removed.

The number of hair removed by the FUE technique is between 6,000 and 10,000 at sessions. If more hair is needed, the session may be repeated after one more day. The openings from which the hair was taken, heal automatically without the need for a seam, after 2 days.
