Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) is an advanced hair restoration technique that involves harvesting individual hair follicles from the donor area and transplanting them into the recipient area of the scalp. During the FUE procedure, the surgeon uses a small, handheld device called a punch tool to extract follicular units one by one from the donor site, typically located at the back or sides of the scalp. These follicles are then carefully implanted into tiny incisions made in the recipient area, where hair growth is desired. FUE offers several advantages over traditional hair transplant methods, including minimal scarring, faster recovery times, and the ability to harvest hair from a wider donor area. This technique is suitable for patients with smaller areas of baldness or those who prefer shorter hairstyles.
