Stages Involved in FUT

What is Follicular Unit Transplantation?

In case, you are looking for an effective and permanent solution for your hair loss problem, then Follicle Unit Transplantation (FUT) can come to your immense aid. It is an advanced technique used for hair restoration where smaller hair follicles are plucked from the donor area and then transferred into the recipient area. The results are natural and permanent.

Stage - 1

The hair from the sides and back of the scalp will be removed carefully and place it into the balding region.

Preparing the Patient

Stage – 2Recipient Area is Trimmed

Before starting the surgery, the hair in the donor area is trimmed by the surgical team.

Stage - 3Patient will be Anesthetized

After trimming the donor area, the patient will be given a local anesthesia in the particular donor area. In due course, to make you feel relaxed, you are also given some options like listening to music, watching movies or chatting in your mobile device etc so that you don’t feel any kind of sensation.

Stage – 4Donor Tissue is Removed

The donor hair which is genetically resistant is surgically removed.

Stage – 5Donor Area is Stitched

After the donor tissues are removed, the donor area is effectively sutured by the surgeon. When the hair is combed over the area, the stitches are not visible, and the sutures are removed after 10 days following the surgery.

Stage – 6Donor Tissue is Shortened down into Follicular Unit Graft

Surgical team uses a stereo microscope to see the donor tissue to dissect and finally make follicular unit grafts.

Stage – 7 Recipient Area is Prepared

The balding area is now ready for the hair transplant surgery. In this step, no trimming is required.

Stage – 8

Small Incisions are made in the Recipient Area

Petite incisions are made in the balding region in uneven patterns. The follicular unit grafts will be transplanted carefully in these small incisions.

Stage – 9Follicular Unit Grafts are transplanted into Incisions

The grafts are carefully placed into the balding region.

Stage – 10The Grafts are Positioned in Different Densities

The tiniest 2 hair grafts will be placed in the frontal hairline and the remaining 3 and 4 grafts will be transplanted behind them.

Stage – 11Patient Right after the Surgery

After the successful hair transplant surgery, hundreds of tiny incisions with small new hair grafts will be visible immediately after the surgery.

The Final Step

The new incisions will heal quickly. The surgeon will give you the post-operative instructions which must be followed stringently for a speedy recovery. The redness as well as scabbing will subside within a week.
