What is FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation) Hair Transplant ?

FUT or Follicular Unit Transplantation is a very first method of surgical hair restoration in Hyderabad, often known as the "strip method." The procedure involves cutting a strip of skin bearing hair grafts from the back of the scalp. The strip is further dissected under microscope to preserve the natural groups of hair called hair grafts. Subsequently, these grafts are inserted in micro-holes created at the scalp's balding or thinning areas, with the aim to replicate natural hair growth patterns and distributions.

The hair transplant surgeon in Hyderabad at Celestee Skin, Laser and Hair Clinic carefully implants each graft during the transplantation procedure. They address the right distribution, angle, and placement of each graft to get a natural-looking hair restoration.

What causes hair loss?

Anyone can suffer from Hair loss or alopecia irrespective of their age, gender, or race. Basically, the weakening or damage of the hair follicles that support the growth of hair strands results in hair thinning and hair shedding out in large numbers, ultimately balding.  Common reasons behind hair loss include fluctuating hormones, use of harsh cosmetics, excessive heat hair styling and chemical-based treatments, environmental conditions, genetics, and side effects of radiation therapy and intake of certain medications. 

How is FUT Hair Transplantation in Hyderabad performed?

FUT hair transplantation involves the following four steps:

1. Harvesting of donor hair grafts with skin attached:

Donor zone, usually the back or side of the scalp, is first anaesthetised with a local numbing agent. The surgeon then surgically removes a small strip of the scalp skin with grafts. This strip is 1-2 cm high and 18-23 cm long. After cutting out the strip, the surgeon closes the incision with stitches.

2. Microscopic dissection:

The harvested strip is placed under a dissecting microscope, exclusively designed for hair restoration. The surgeon then splits the harvested donor strip into individual follicular units with one to four hair each for use as a graft.

3. Preparation of the recipient site:

Using a scalpel or sharp surgical tool, the surgeon creates multiple micro holes into the skin of the recipient site. These are made at the right angle, direction, and orientation matching the natural hair growth pattern. This is done to design a suitable hairline and future, permanent hairstyle specifically for an individual.

4. Graft transplant:

The hair transplant surgeon in Hyderabad then one by one inserts individual follicular units into the holes created at the recipient areas.

How many sessions are required in FUT hair transplant?

How long is the FUT hair transplant procedure?

FUT has the advantage of requiring less surgery time than FUE. This is because, after the donor site strip removal, a group of dissectors immediately starts processing the harvesting area. FUT takes 2–6 hours to complete, depending on the extent of dissection.

Is FUT hair transplant a painful procedure?
