Be Proactive About Your Follicular Unit Extraction

As the benefits for Follicle Unit Extraction - FUE is increasing, more and more people are beginning to resort to this method of hair restoration as opposed to the traditional strip surgery which creates a linear scar. FUE also allows for use of body hair in transplantation also know as body hair transplantation.

FUE is linear scar-free stitch and scalpel-free. Apart from graft placement, no technicians should be performing any  FUE type hair transplant except for the doctor or someone licensed to perform surgery; there are not stitches after the hair restoration; and there is no use of mass production graft-damaging machines. In addition, your body and head hairs are used to treat the needed hair loss area and patients have the freedom to style their hair anyway they want.

In some parts of the United States, it is actually illegal for non-licensed personnel to perform FUE on their own. Another thing that patients must look out for is if the clinic is using a mass production machine to virtually vacuum out the graft-literally air-drying the grafts to death in the hair restoration process.

These vacuumed grafts are transported at high speeds through tubes, leading to a receptacle. The process is harmful to the integrity of the grafts and risking viability in the hair transplant process.

Although you may be suffering from hair loss, do your research before settling for a surgeon to perform your FUE hair restoration. You should go to a clinic that subscribes to the philosophy that all FUE is a surgical procedure and that only licensed personnel should perform it. If you are a prospective hair restoration patient researching a Follicular Unit Extraction-type procedure, ask your clinic about the qualifications and licensure of the personnel extracting your grafts as well as the type of machine they are using to treat your hair loss. Be proactive.
