Hair transplantation involves relocating (transplanting) bald resistant hais follicles from the back and sides of the head (the donor areas) to a person’s bald or thinning areas. The transplanted hair follicles will typically grow hair for a lifetime because they are genetically resistant to going bald. In recent years hair transplantation techniques have evolved from using large plugs and mini grafts to exclusively using large numbers of small grafts that contain from between 1 to 4 hairs.

Since hair naturally grows in follicles that contain groupings of 1 to 4 hairs, today’s most advanced techniques transplant these naturally occurring 1 – 4 hair "follicular units" in their natural groupings. Thus modern hair transplantation can achieve a natural appearance by mimicking nature hair for hair

Procedure : Hair in the back and sides of the scalp (donor hair) is known to be resistant to genetic balding. When donor hair is moved into balding and thinning areas, it can replicate the normal appearance of the lost native hair that originally grew in the balding area.

Conventional method of FUT consists of three main steps: Removing a strip of skin from back of scalp, harvesting follicular unit grafts from the excised scalp, and transferring the grafts to the pin sized holes, which are made by surgeon in the bald, recipient area. The wound in the donor area is suture closed after removing the strip.

Making grafts: Making follicular unit grafts (usually contain 1 to 4 hair follicles) are carefully dissected under a microscope by an experienced team trained and skilled to minimize damage during the removal process. As a rule, the rate of hair damage during this procedure should be less than 5%. Follicular grafts are cooled when they are outside the body to increase their survivability.

Placement: Recipient site distribution, direction, and the type of instrument used determine the final look of the hairline. The graft direction and distribution reflect the experience of the surgeon. Improper direction or distribution will produce less-than-ideal aesthetic results. Grafts can be placed close together to mimic the original fullness. The patient's supply of hair, extent of the bald area and quality of the hair determine whether one or more procedures are necessary to achieve the fullness that the patient desires.

Result: Today's modern hair transplant can be completely indistinguishable from a non-transplanted head of hair. The key to a good hair transplant reflect the experience of the surgical team. Performing follicular unit transplantation takes a coordinated teamwork of 3-6 people working together for several hours, so the surgeon's team is as important as the surgeon. The skills of a surgeon can easily be offset by inexperienced technicians in the surgical team or sloppy processes.
