PROCESS OF UFUE

Process begins with consultation. The patient is informed about the process and new hairline is drawn. Procedure is performed under local anesthesia. Medical staff washes the patient’s hair and donor area is shaved. Usually  neck area is used for donor.  Afterwards, hair follicles are collected from the shaved donor area with a micro motor device.

The major stage is creating the canals in the whole procedure: Doctor opens canals on the recipient area with a medical tools. These canals are tiny incisions. Those incisions’ placings are designed carefully to give a natural look. Direction of existing hair and the pattern should match the natural hair.

After these steps, the final stage comes: transplantation. The most important detail here is to ensure that the roots to be transplanted are transplanted in the same direction as the direction of growth of the existing hair. After the transplant is complete, PRP procedure can be applied to give a boosting to the follicles.
