Types of Hair Transplant

Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) is when individual hair grafts are harvested one follicular unit at a time directly from the safe zone with an extraction device. This leaves small circular scars with no necessity for stitches.

The follicular unit is the basis for how hair transplantation is performed. Learn more about what a follicular unit is and how it applies to your hair loss. The follicular unit is the basis for how hair transplantation is performed.

The ARTAS ® Robotic Hair Transplant gives you fuller hair while eliminating the drawbacks typically associated with older transplant methods. This minimally invasive, outpatient procedure transplants your own hair without stitches or noticeable scarring.

Telogen effluvium can occur in the donor area with FUE or strip harvesting, but this is uncommon. Infection is a very rare complication with hair restoration surgery. Dehiscence with strip harvesting can occur but this is quite rare and would be associated with surgical error.
