FUT Vs. FUE Hair Transplant: Which is the Best Method for Hair Transplant

A Hair Transplant is a surgery performed to address the issue of Hair Thinning and Baldness. The surgery involves transplanting hair from the parts of your head where the hair is thick.

Types of Hair Transplants:

According to Dr. Girish, Founder of Curls & Curves Cosmetic Surgery Center in Bangalore and a well-known cosmetic surgeon, Hair transplants are of two types:

  • Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE)
  • Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT)

The choice of which suits better depends upon the desire of the patient and a few other factors.

What Is Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE)?

FUE Hair Transplant is a procedure where your surgeon individually extracts the hair follicles and transplants them on the required area.

FUE Hair Transplant – Before and After:

Before:
  • Avoid smoking
  • Avoid Alcohol
  • Stop your routine medications until the surgery is complete
  • hysical examination to certify fitness for surgery
  • Blood tests and other specific tests if required.
After
  • Discharged by the same evening
  • Visit the hospital the following day for a follow-up and dress up
  • Rest for a week
  • Head bath after a week
  • Work from home
  • Best results after a period of one to one and a half year
During the Surgery:
  • Surgery under Local Anaesthesia
  • The surgeon will shave the back portion of the head
  • Hair follicles are from the skin
  • The surgeon will make a series of tiny incisions
  • The Follicles are in these incisions
  • The operated area is secured with stitches and bandaged

What Is Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT)?

FUT Hair Transplant is a procedure where the surgeon cuts a strip of skin from the scalp. The size of the strip depends upon the number of follicles required to be transplanted.

Which Type of Hair Transplant is Best Suitable?

Dr. Girish, Founder of Curls & Curves Cosmetic Surgery Center, rated as the best Hair Transplant Clinic in Bangalore, explains on arriving at a suitable choice.

  • The difference between FUT & FUE lies in the extraction of hairs.
  • The chances of Scars in FUE are minimal when compared to FUT.
  • FUE takes a longer time than FUT
  • FUT is ideal for people requiring a large number of grafts
  • FUT is suitable for patients who require a certain number of grafts.

Your cosmetic surgeon will discuss both types of procedures with you and recommend the best option based on your overall health condition, the number of grafts needed, the quality of hair and the quantity to be transplanted.

FUE Hair Transplant Cost:

FUE Hair Transplant cost in India varies from patient to patient. It depends upon factors like the quantum of hairs to be transplanted and the doctor's skillsets.

The average cost for FUE Hair Transplant in Bangalore is Rs.40 per graft + GST.
