What is Hair Transplantation?
Hair transplantation is a procedure where hair follicles from a donor area (usually the back or sides of your scalp) are moved to balding or thinning areas.
The options available for Hair Transplantation are:
Main Techniques
1. FUE – Follicular Unit Extraction
- Hair follicles are extracted one by one using a micro punch
- No stitches
- Tiny dot-like scars, nearly invisible
- Quick healing, less discomfort
- Suitable for people who prefer short hairstyles
Recovery: 5–7 days
Ideal for: Mild to moderate hair loss, early stages of baldness
2. FUT – Follicular Unit Transplantation (Strip Method
- A thin strip of scalp is removed from the back of the head
- Individual follicles are prepared under a microscope
- Donor area closed with stitches, leaves a linear scar (hidden under hair)
Recovery: 10–14 days
Ideal for: Patients with advanced hair loss who need a larger number of grafts
3. Combination of FUE + FUT
Best of both worlds
- First, FUT is done to get a large number of grafts
- Then, FUE is used to extract additional grafts from around the strip or
beard/body - Maximizes graft yield in a single session
- Ideal for:
- Advanced baldness (Norwood 5-7)
- Repeat transplant (if donor area is limited)
- Dense hairline + crown coverage
| Feature | FUE | FUT | FUE + FUT Combo |
|---|---|---|---|
| Scarring | Tiny dots | Linear scar | Both (hidden well) |
| Graft Yield | Moderate | High | Very High |
| Recovery Time | 5–7 days | 10–14 days | 7–10 days |
| Best For | Early/moderate baldness | High-grade baldness | Maximum coverage in one go |
| Shaving Required? | Usually yes | Usually no | Depends on strategy |
| Repeatability | Yes | Limited | Maximized |
Who is it for?
- FUE: Young patients, small bald areas, short hairstyle lovers
- FUT: Need more grafts in one session, long hair hides scar
- Combo: High-grade baldness, limited donor zone, second-time transplant
Final Word:
Hair transplantation is not one-size-fits-all. The right technique depends on your baldness
level, donor area, and personal goals.
An expert surgeon will tailor a plan — FUE, FUT, or a combination — to give you the most natural
and long-lasting results.
