Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE)

Skin & Surgery International - FUE Treatment in Pune

Follicular Unit Extraction or FUE is a hugely popular and evolving technique of hair transplant. In this method, a small round punch is used for extracting follicular units from a patient’s bald resistant donor areas one at a time. These 1, 2, 3 and 4 hair groupings known as follicular unit grafts are then transplanted into the balding areas of a patient.


The demand along with the popularity for FUE has increased considerably over the past many years, whether, it’s the lack of linear scar related with conventional follicular unit hair transplantation through strip harvesting or FUT, its nature being less invasive or potentially faster healing time. The recent developments in FUE technique as far as hair transplant is concerned has proven that FUE is here to stay.


The FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) hair transplant is ideal for those who prefer short haircuts and are at high risk of scarring. It is particularly beneficial for repairing existing donor scars and is a suitable alternative to strip procedures when the scalp is too tight for excision. This technique offers minimal post-operative discomfort, allows for selective harvesting of fine hair for detailed areas like the hairline or eyebrows, and minimizes restrictions on vigorous activities post-surgery.
