Hair normally grows in naturally occurring bundles of hair. FUT is also known as the strip procedure. A surgical hair restoration technique in which the patient’s existing hair is planted in a group of 1 to 4 hairs making it possible for the surgeon to transplant thousands of grafts in a single session thus maximizing the effectiveness of the technique. In this procedure, a linear strip of tissues from the sides or the back of the scalp is extracted from gathering permanent roots. These roots are then implanted in the bald area. Follicular units are received through strip excision in which each silver patch is converted into grafts through microscopic dissection. The procedure involves the utilization of these naturally occurring clusters of grafts. For minimizing the pain during graft extraction anesthesia is administered to the patient. In the past, people were experiencing pain during surgeries, but are completely virtually painless.
Before the procedure, thoroughly consult your doctor. Inform him about the root cause of your hair loss and make yourself clear about the results, procedure, recovery, and side effects of the treatment.
