What is FUT?
Very similar to Follicular Unit Extraction, Follicular Unit Transplant is a hair transplant treatment that offers easy procedure and natural-looking results. The implantation process is identical by placing follicular grafts in the thinning areas or known as recipient areas.
In the extraction wise, for FUT, all of your hair will be removed at once in a quick and simple process, unlike FUE, in which each individual hair graft is extracted one by one.
Counting the amount of grafts needed is usually done by dividing the hair into parts/areas. 1 graft contains 2 to 4 strands of hair on average. Normally, 500 to 2000 grafts are recommended, depending on the areas of hair loss. 500 grafts can be used to touch up specific bald parts such as the upper forehead part, whereas 2000 grafts can be used to treat almost 3/4 of the hair. For a person with full baldness, up to 3,000 grafts are recommended.
How It Works
For the FUT (Follicular Unit Transplant) treatment, an incision will be involved along a strip of scalp skin from the donor site (posterior scalp), which is also known as the permanent zone. The hair to be transplanted will be conveniently obtained in the form of a strip and it will be planted onto the area needed.
Stitches will be applied and have to be removed on day 8 to 10 after the procedure. The recovery period can be slightly longer than the FUE method.

FUT Procedure
1. After your scalp is anesthetized, a strip of tissue (donor skin) will be removed from the donor area. Once extracted, this donor strip will be slivered into several independent follicular units using microscopic dissection techniques.
2. As these follicular unit grafts will be prepared, small incisions will be made in the scalp, which is called recipient sites, where the grafts are placed.
3. The arrangement and positioning of these follicular unit grafts dictate the aesthetic qualities of a hair transplant. Therefore, this arrangement differs with each patient, according to the patient’s history of hair loss and probability of future hair loss.

FAQ
Q1: Should I choose FUT or FUE?
A1: In general, FUT yields the most donor hair. Therefore, the procedure is best suited for more extensive hair loss and in patients where the main concern is the maximum use of one’s donor supply. The hair is maximized because of the precise nature of stereo-microscopic dissection and the fact that all the hair is harvested from the mid-portion of the permanent zone where the hair is most dense and stable. A limitation of FUT is that it leaves a line scar in the donor area. With normal styling, this is easily covered with hair, but it precludes someone from wearing their hair very short. FUE is more appropriate for patients who would like to keep their hair very short or who can’t limit strenuous activities in the post-op period. In general, younger patients who need to keep their styling options flexible choose FUE, whereas those who desire the most coverage opt for FUT.
Q2: Are hairs removed from the donor area re-growable?
A2: No, they are not re-growable as the hairs were removed along with hair bulbs.
Q3: Is the recovery time long?
A3: Although it will take up to 1 year for your transplanted beard to grow to its fullest, you can return to work the day after your hair transplant procedure.
Q4: Will it be painful?
A4: It is painless as anesthesia will be given. Discomfort and soreness may occur but it will be bearable. Our affiliated clinic will also provide painkillers and any other medication needed for you to deal with the discomfort and heal.
Q5: Any precautions I should take before the procedure?
A5: You should let the doctors know about your medical history and current condition. In addition, it is discouraged for you to take any blood flow stimulants or blood thinners prior to the procedure such as coffee, chocolate, vitamin complexes, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, aspirin, etc.
