If you were considering hair transplant then a common question crossing your mind would be – Which hair transplant method to use? In this blog, we will be covering 3 most common hair transplant methods that will enable you to pick the right hair transplant treatment.
- Follicular Unit Hair Transplantation (FUT)
- Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE)
- Direct Hair Implant (DHI)/ Strip Surgery Hair Transplant
FUT- In this method, hair is harvested using a thin & long donor strip that is dissected into individual follicular units by using special microscopes.
FUE- In this method, grafts are taken from the back and sides of the donor and are dissected into the affected areas using a small & round punch like instrument that is approximately 7 mm.
Direct Hair Implant-Direct hair implant is the latest
technique in the hair transplant and is considered as the advanced form of FUE.
In this method, a specific kind of implanter is used whereas in FUE, the procedure
is to make holes are made first and then hairs are put into it. The result is
almost same but DHI is a cleaner way of doing it.
