5 Reasons Why Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) Is The Most Popular Hair Transplant Method:
1) Minimal Scarring: FUE is performed by extracting individual follicular units one by one, which results in small, round scars instead of a long linear scar in the donor area, as is the case with strip-harvesting techniques.
2) Faster Recovery: Since there is no need for sutures or staples, patients usually experience a faster recovery times.
3) Less Pain: FUE is a minimally invasive procedure and is generally associated with less pain compared to other hair transplant methods.
4) Natural-looking Results: The individual follicular units in an FUE transplant are distributed more naturally than FUT, resulting in a more natural-looking hairline. FUT transplants are associated with the 'hair plug' look.
5) Less Disruption to Donor Area: Since only a small portion of the donor area is harvested at a time, the disruption to the donor area is less severe than with strip-harvesting methods, which involves removing a large strip of hair-bearing skin.
