Follicular Unit Transplant
As surgical hair restoration has evolved, so have the outstanding results that skilled physicians can deliver to their patients.
Follicular Unit Transplant is the new standard of hair replacement that allows surgeons to recreate the natural hairline.
With this hair regrowth technique, surgeons can place Micro Grafts containing one to four hairs into the recipient sites to achieve a more natural appearance. Careful orientation of the follicles so that they follow the natural direction of the hair, and taking care to place them so they do not overlap or line up unnecessarily, helps to achieve maximum coverage.
Older surgical hair restoration techniques and technology significantly hindered
surgeons’ abilities to give their hair transplant patients
aesthetically natural-looking hairlines. The Follicular Unit Transplant
technique opens up the way to master the technology and fine art of
hairline design known as the ‘snail track’ hairline.
This new technique earns its name from the way it mimics the natural
hair line irregularity, ruling out a sharply defined edge. It is also
denser in some parts – a feature of youthful hairlines.
