FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation), also known as the strip method, is a proven and effective hair restoration technique used to treat significant hair loss. The procedure involves the removal of a strip of scalp from the donor area, typically from the back or sides of the head. The strip is then dissected into individual follicular units, which are carefully transplanted into areas of hair loss.
One of the main advantages of FUT is that it allows for the transplantation of a larger number of hair follicles in a single session, making it ideal for patients with more extensive hair loss. While FUT leaves a linear scar in the donor area, this can usually be hidden under the hair. The results are permanent, and the transplanted hair grows naturally and continuously.
At our clinic, FUT is performed with utmost precision by our experienced team, ensuring that the hair is transplanted in a way that mimics natural growth patterns. The procedure is performed under local anesthesia to ensure your comfort, with minimal discomfort or downtime during recovery.
