2. Hair transplantation is broadly achieved by removing
grafts/follicles from the back of the head that are more
resistant to hormonal changes, and placing them in
areas of scanty growth or baldness.There are two
methods to remove the grafts – Follicular Unit
Transplantation (FUT) and Follicular Unit Extraction
(FUE).
WHAT IS
HAIR
TRANSPLANT?

3. PRE HAIR
TRANSPLANT
PLANNING
 Even before the actual process or sessions of hair transplantation
can begin,the patient needs to have sessions with the concerned
surgeon to thoroughly understand the process, do’s and don’ts,
expectations and his/her preferred way to go about the process.
 An analysis of the patients scalp needs to be done to conclusively
decide the most appropriate method to achieve optimum results
for a particular patient.This includes deciding on the number of
sessions required for treatment for a particular patient, ranging
from a single to multiple depending on the scalp analysis.

4.  A pre-operative folliscopy helps to identify the density of existing
hair of the patient that is later used to accurately assess the post-
operative results of newly transplanted hair. Some patients are
advised topical minoxidil application and vitamins for better
results.
 More importantly, the intake of any kind of medication outside of
the one prescribed for the treatment should be avoided to not
affect the eventual results of the procedure. Intake of alcohol,
smoking could also lead to poor grafting results.

PROCEDURE
The HairTransplant procedure is around 6 to 8 hours long.
 Patients are given local anesthesia in the donor and the
recipient sites. Once the anesthesia is given, patients feel no
pain during the procedure.
 Most patients feel fine within a day or two after the surgery.
Some patients may feel some numbness or soreness for few
days.
 It usually takes 3- 5 months before the transplanted follicles
start growing new hair.The new hair that grows initially is thin
and gradually becomes thicker and fuller.
 In eight to ten months, the transplanted hair will be completely
mature and will continue to grow for a lifetime.

6. FUE HAIR
TRANSPLANT
 Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) is a method of extracting, or
“harvesting,” donor hair in a follicular unit hair transplant
procedure. In FUE hair transplant surgery; an instrument is used to
make a small, circular incision in the skin around a follicular unit,
separating it from the surrounding tissue.The unit is then
extracted (pulled) directly from the scalp, leaving a small open
hole.
 This process is repeated until the hair transplant surgeon has
harvested enough follicular units for the planned hair restoration.
This process can take one or more hours and in large sessions, may
be accomplished over two consecutive days.The donor wounds,
approximately 1-mm in size, completely heal over the course of
seven to ten days, leaving tiny white scars buried in the hair in the
back and sides of the scalp.

7. FUE HAIR
TRANSPLANT
 This method of donor harvesting, removing follicular units one-by-
one directly from the scalp, is what differentiates the FUE hair
transplant from a traditional Follicular UnitTransplant (FUT),
where the donor hair is removed from the scalp in one thin, long
strip and then subsequently dissected into individual follicular
units using a stereo-microscope.
 Before the grafts are harvested, tiny “recipient sites” are made in
the balding area of the scalp using a fine needlepoint instrument.
The follicular units are then placed into the recipient sites where
they will grow into healthy hair-producing follicles.
 The creation of recipient sites and the placing of follicular unit
grafts are essentially the same in both FUE and FUT procedures.
The difference lies in the appearance of the donor area and in the
quality and quantity of grafts obtained with each technique.

8. FUT HAIR
TRANSPLANT
 Follicular UnitTransplantation (FUT) is a surgical procedure where
hair is transplanted in the balding or hair thinning areas by
removing a strip of hair from the back or the side of the head
since, the back and side of the heads are not usually prone to
balding and have stronger hair follicles.
 The hairs or grafts are cleaned and divided into natural follicular
units, between 1-4 hairs per unit called follicular units.This
procedure is conducted under high magnification to ensure graft
survival.
 The process begins after the scalp of the patient is anesthetized.A
strip of tissue from the donor area (back or side of the head) is
removed and then divided into follicular units.

9.  As these follicular unit grafts are being prepared, tiny holes are
made in the scalp, called recipient sites, where the grafts are
placed.
 One has to be very careful and precise while making the
arrangements and positioning of the follicular unit grafts as the
aesthetic value of the hair transplant and how natural it looks
depends on it.
 The way of arrangement also depends on patient-to-patient, with
the history of their hair loss to be taken into consideration.
 Since follicular unit transplants mimic the way hair grows in
nature, the results, in expert hands, will look completely natural
and be indistinguishable from one’s original hair.
