Abstract
Background: There are many combinations of different factors that lead to hair loss. It is vastly a genetic issue that can progress further through stress, poor diet, hormones and/or lifestyle. The only permanent treatment for the hair loss is the Hair transplantation.
Objective: We describe the benefits of an advance form of FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) that includes the micro- FUE and also the U-FUE.U-FUE is an innovation to the field of FUE hair transplantation as there is no need for the patient to have his head shaved prior to the procedure, so the procedure can be totally undetectable.
Results: Excellent healing of the donor and recipient areas, totally natural and undetectable final result with both methods(micro-FUE and U-FUE) and even few days after the procedure a discrete appearance of patients that have performed the U-FUE method.
Conclusion: On the results we can see that the instruments used in a hair transplant procedure, the skills and technique of the hair restoration surgeon and the way of extraction and implantation can offer totally different results not only in the percentage of the hair growth but also in how natural the final result can be. Moreover differences can be observed in the healing of recipient and donor areas and in the harvesting and damage of donor area as well.
