About FUE and FUT Hair Transplants

Both FUE and FUT are proven, effective hair transplant methods designed to combat hair loss and restore density where it’s needed most.

FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction): This technique involves harvesting individual hair follicles from the donor area, typically at the back of the scalp, using a precise, minimally invasive method. The follicles are then transplanted into areas of thinning or balding for a seamless, natural look.
FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation): Also known as the “strip method,” FUT involves removing a small strip of scalp from the donor area. The hair follicles are meticulously separated from this strip and implanted into the recipient area, offering excellent coverage in a single session.

What are the Benefits of Each Method?

Both FUE and FUT hair transplants offer unique advantages, allowing patients to achieve fuller, natural-looking hair. The following is a breakdown of how each method can benefit your journey:

Benefits of FUE:

Minimally invasive with no linear scar.
Faster healing time in the donor area.
Ideal for patients seeking to wear very short hairstyles.
Allows for precise follicle placement for natural results.
Suitable for smaller, targeted areas of hair restoration.

Benefits of FUT:

High graft yield in a single session, making it ideal for larger areas of hair loss.
Preserves the integrity of donor hair for long-term use.
Often faster and more cost-effective for significant coverage.
Allows for consistent results with an experienced surgical team.
Great for patients requiring maximum density.
Discrete recovery that allows for hair to be kept long (unshaved) in the donor area.

Which Is Best for You?

Deciding between FUE and FUT depends on your hair loss pattern, the condition of your donor area, and your desired aesthetic outcome. Determining the right procedure starts with a personalized consultation with one of Ample’s experienced specialists. During this process, we assess your hair loss pattern, scalp health, and long-term goals to identify the method that offers the best results.
