3 Benefits of Follicular Unit Extraction

If you have been experiencing hair loss, you may be considering a hair transplant to restore your self-confidence. Follicular unit extraction (FUE) can help you overcome the negative effects of hair loss. The in-office procedure can provide fuller and thicker hair with less trauma than other methods. Here are three benefits you can receive with follicular unit extraction to help you regrow a healthier head of hair with natural-looking results.

Faster Recovery

With follicular unit extraction, you can resume your normal daily activities within a couple days. The procedure is done using local anesthesia, which means you can drive yourself to your appointment and return the same day. Some things you can do to speed your recovery include eliminating alcohol use for three days after the procedure and avoiding heat styling tools for a week.

Minimal Scarring

Follicular unit extraction can help you regrow your hair with less noticeable scarring than other transplant methods. There are no stitches or staples and you can wear your hair short without anyone noticing you had a surgical procedure performed. The surgeon will give you special instructions to follow after the procedure to help your scalp heal with minimal scarring.

Exceptional Natural Results Through Advanced Technology

Follicular unit extraction is performed using the NeoGraft® system. This advanced technology uses compressed air to extract follicular units directly from the donor area with a no-touch technique. The grafts are then implanted into the targeted area with minimal discomfort. This system provides incredible precision for any unpredictable growth patterns in your hair. The results will give you natural-looking results you cannot find anywhere else.
