Follicular unit extraction (FUE)
Court House Clinics now offer FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) Hair Transplants as well as traditional Strip Surgery (Micrografting).
FUE is an advanced technique that makes it possible to transplant hair without the need for scalpel or stitches. Dr Theo Vernikos who performs this procedure at Court House Clinics was one of the original surgeons who pioneered FUE and therefore he is able to offer expertise in this which produces a scar free and natural looking hair restoration. He is also a member of the prestigious International Society for Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS).
Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) is one of the hair replacement treatment options available to men and women who suffer from hair loss due to pattern balding, thinning, or other causes. This method does not leave a scar or other obvious signs of the transplantation. The procedure may be performed under only local anaesthetic while the patient relaxes comfortably distracted by television or by reading and it requires no hospital stay and some people even choose to go back to work the following day.
FUE involved the removal or extraction of individual live hair follicles from the aesthetic back of the head or indeed other parts of body i.e. chest, back etc, rather than removing a strip of skin with hair from the donor site that may leave a long and visible scar. It is ideal for men and women with less advanced baldness and a good donor area at the back of the head. It is also an appealing option for those who want to wear their hair short and do not want to cover a long scar, or those who want to cover a scar left by previous surgery with FUE.
FUE can be used to recreate a natural hair line and can used in selected patients in conjunction with traditional strip surgery for maximum hair cover. It may not be suitable for those individuals who have very advanced hair loss and a smaller donor area and those with curly hair i.e. Afro-Caribbean. .
Everyone is unique and hair loss causes, skin type, and potential for success vary according to each patient. One of our hair transplantation specialists will consult with you to determine the best replacement method or treatment for your specific needs.
