Treatment Method
Non-Incisional Method
Follicular unit extraction (FUE)
1. Harvest hair follicles individually, using a specialized instrument to extract them directly from the donor area of the scalp.
2. Harvested hair follicles are then carefully transplanted to the balding or thinning areas of the scalp.
The non-incisional method offers several advantages over FUT, including fast recovery time and less worry about scarring. However, the procedure can take longer to perform than FUT, and there is a risk of damage to hair follicles during the collection process.

Incisional Method
1. Make a small incision on the scalp to obtain a strip of skin tissue, similar to the FUT method.
2. Hair follicles are then carefully checked and separated from the strip using a microscope or magnifying lens.
3. Transplanted to the balding or thinning areas of the scalp.
This technique is highly effective in harvesting hair follicles and can offer excellent results in the hands of an experienced surgeon. However, the procedure can be more invasive than FUE and FUT, and there is a risk of scarring at the donor site.

Combinational Method
The combinational method of hair transplantation involves a mix of the non-incisional and incisional methods.
This technique allows for the advantages of both methods, including the efficient harvesting of a large number of hair follicles and the preservation of the original hair distribution state.
This technique can offer excellent results but it can also be more time-consuming and invasive than other methods.

Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT)
1. Removing a strip of tissue from the donor area, typically from the back of the scalp, which contains a large number of hair follicles.
2. The strip is then dissected into individual follicular units, which are small groups of 1-4 hair follicles.
3. These follicular units are then carefully transplanted to the balding or thinning areas of the scalp.
FUT is highly efficient as it allows the surgeon to transplant a large number of hair follicles in a single session. It also allows for the preservation of the original hair distribution state.
However, this technique does leave a linear scar at the donor site, which can be noticeable if the hair is cut too short

Is hair transplant surgery painful?
Hair transplant surgery is usually performed under local anesthesia, which numbs the scalp and makes the procedure painless.
Patients may feel some discomfort or soreness after the surgery, but this can usually be managed with over-the-counter pain medication.
Most patients are able to return to their normal activities within a few days after the procedure.
