FUE vs FUT: Which Hair Transplant Technique is Right for You?
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) and FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation) are the two main hair transplant techniques available today. Understanding the differences can help you make the best decision for your situation.
FUE involves extracting individual follicular units directly from the donor area using a small circular punch tool. This leaves tiny dot scars that are virtually invisible even with very short hair. Recovery is faster, typically 5-7 days.
FUT involves removing a strip of scalp from the back of the head and then dissecting it into individual follicular units. This leaves a linear scar that can be hidden under longer hair. FUT can yield more grafts in a single session.
At Density Clinic, we offer both FUE and FUT, and your surgeon will guide you to the right choice during your free consultation.
