FUE hair transplant is a popular technique today because it does not require a long recovery period and has a low chance of scarring. It also helps the new hair grow strong and looks more natural. This technique is suitable for people with hair loss and thinning hair who want to boost their confidence with hair transplantation.
In this article, we will take a detailed look at the FUE hair transplant process and provide advice on how to properly self-care after a hair transplant.
9 steps of FUE hair transplant, an effective choice against weak hair root problem
Basically, there are 11 steps in the FUE hair transplant process, which can be divided into 3 main parts as follows:
Preparation
Step 1:
For the first step, the patient must make an appointment with the doctor so that the doctor can diagnose the problem and plan the appropriate treatment. In some cases where the patient has severe hair loss and thinning hair, the doctor may plan to nourish the hair before the transplant so that the hair is strong enough to be transplanted. In addition, this step allows the doctor to assess the transplant area and design the initial hairline according to the patient’s needs. Then, there will be an appointment on the date and time of transplantation so preparations can be made..
Step 2:
On the appointment date, the doctor will take a blood test to screen for diseases and assess the patient’s health.
Step 3:
The doctor designs the hairline together with the patient to solve the hair loss/thinning problem. If the patient already has a desired hairline, they can use it as a guideline for transplantation. The doctor will calculate the number of hair grafts required based on the size of the area to be transplanted.
Step 4:
The doctor and team will cut or shave the hair in the donor area. After that, the doctor will give the patient sedatives to help them relax during the surgery.
Step 5:
The patient lies face down so that the doctor can sterilize the target area.
Harvesting
Step 6:
The doctor will use a small drill to extract the hair grafts from the scalp at the back of the head. Then, they will be soaked in cell culture solution.
*For MCG hair transplantation, the doctor will use a special small drill to create a denser hairline.
Planting
Step 7:
Once the hair grafts have been extracted, the patient will lie face up so that the doctor can arrange the hairline. This is a very important step. Because it is the orientation of the hairline, angle, and density of the hair graft. Then, the hair graft is implanted in the desired area.
Step 8:
The doctor inserts the cultivated hair graft into the created hair follicles until it fills the desired area.
Step 9:
After the hair transplant is complete, the doctor will close the wound on the back of the head. The entire hair transplant process takes approximately 6-8 hours.
