FUT is a process that allows the surgeon to use a strip of tissue to restore healthy hair follicles where they are needed. Best Hair Transplant frequently recommends this method for hair restoration, particularly in cases of advanced hair loss, as it produces the best results for restoring fuller hair.

The Follicular Unit Transplant Process

Our surgeon performs follicular unit transplants (FUT) utilizing a narrow, superficial strip of skin. Hair follicles are transferred in natural groupings of 1-4 hairs taken from the back of the scalp. The follicles are easily identified and protected with individual dissection under stereoscopic microscopes.

Smaller 1-2 hair grafts are required in the hairline, but larger 3-4 hair grafts offer additional density in the top and crown regions. Once the grafts are prepared, placement into the recipient sites can be efficiently accomplished by the team. The hair in the donor areas covers the incision while healing occurs.
