FUT or FUE? Which One Should You Choose?

Hair transplant is the permanent solution to for people suffering from hair loss. Now there are two different techniques in which hair transplant in Kolkata is performed. So you need to understand what method is suitable for you.

FUT (Follicular Unit Transplant)

The strip is then meticulously separated into each grafts of follicular units comprising one to four hair stands. The grafts are then inserted into the affected area.

The donor area is then stitched up and covered with the surrounding hair. General studies say FUT procedure gives access to higher donor yield area compared to FUE. While going through this method of hair transplant the patient doesn’t need to shave their head. It gives a fuller and denser look as maximum number of donor grafts can be extracted in this method. Also this method of transplant is cheaper than FUE.

FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction)

Unlike FUT, there is no concept of cutting strip whereas the individual hair follicles are extracted from the donor area using a punch of 0.8mm to 1mm diameter. The follicles are then inserted to the affected area. This method of hair transplant is generally opted for the patients requiring lesser number of grafts. This method doesn’t leave any linear scar but tiny dots in the scalp from where the donor grafts are extracted.
