1.Follicular Unit Transplant (FUT)

FUT is sometimes referred to as Follicular Unit Strip Surgery (FUSS).

The strip is usually about 6 to 10 inches long but can be stretched from ear to ear.
The area where the scalp is removed is sutured.
Your surgeon and his assistants cut the scalp into smaller pieces with a scalpel. They may cut the piece into 2,000 smaller pieces called grafts. Some of these grafts may have only one hair each.

  3. Quality (including thickness) of hair
  4. Hair color

The hair in the donor area is cut short, a local anesthetic is prescribed, and the grafts are removed with a special surgical instrument 1 mm in diameter. These hair grafts enter the channels created in bald or thinning hairy areas.

Hair transplantation is done one by one by transferring the grafts from the source area to the target area. As a result of this operation, redness appears on the skin. Crusting occurs during the healing phase of this location after surgery. The formed crusts can go away in the next fifteen days.

2.Shock shedding process:

Shock shedding happens when the remaining pieces of transplanted hair are shed on the skin and new hair fiber begins to grow. Occurs one to three months after crusts have shed. The transplanted hair follicles are not injured during the shock shedding time.

Some surgeons prescribe the hair –growing drug minoxidil (Rogaine) to improve hair growth after transplantation, but it is not clear how well it works.

  • Antibiotics to prevent infection
  • Anti-inflammatory drugs, such as oral steroids, to relieve swelling
