Choosing Between FUT and FUE Hair Restoration Techniques

The decision between FUT and FUE depends on individual factors such as hair type, desired results, and RG Aesthetic Plastic Surgery's recommendations. Both techniques offer effective solutions for hair restoration, each with unique advantages.

The FUT Advantage

At RG Aesthetic Plastic Surgery in Nashville, we understand that choosing the right hair transplant technique is crucial for achieving your desired results. While both Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) and Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) offer effective solutions, FUT provides distinct advantages, making it an excellent choice for many patients.

Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT)

What is a FUT Hair Transplant?

At RG Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, our surgeons are passionate and experienced in cosmetic surgery. We have helped numerous patients achieve their desired look with procedures such as tummy tucks, breast lifts, and mommy makeovers. We are dedicated to providing you with the best possible care and results.

Advantages of FUT Hair Transplants

Manageable Recovery Time: Recovery typically lasts 10-12 days. Although some patients may experience discomfort or swelling, pain medication is prescribed to alleviate any discomfort.

Higher Rate of Follicle Survival: FUT harvests hair from the mid-donor zone, where hair is usually permanent. This method ensures robust, high-quality grafts with superior survival rates.
Natural-Looking Results: The procedure leaves behind a thin, linear scar, easily concealed within surrounding hair. Transplanted hair grows naturally, offering fuller, undetectable results.
No Additional Scarring: Regardless of the number of procedures, only one scar remains. This contrasts with FUE, which leaves multiple round scars.

Candidates for FUT Transplant

FUT is ideal for patients seeking maximum fullness and coverage, particularly in the crown area. It's recommended for those with significant balding seeking optimal aesthetic results

Success Rate of FUT Hair Transplants

Success rates, reaching 95-98%. Temporary shedding of transplanted follicles before regrowth is normal and part of the natural hair cycle.

Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE)

What is a FUE Hair Transplant?

Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) involves harvesting individual follicular units from the scalp using microscopic circular incisions. This minimally invasive technique leaves less noticeable thinning in the donor area.

Types of FUE Procedures

Manual FUE: An expert manually extracts hair follicles using a handheld device, ensuring precision and accuracy.
Robotic FUE: Utilizes robotic technology guided by the physician to harvest donor grafts with unparalleled precision.

Choosing Between FUE and FUT

The decision between FUE and FUT depends on individual factors such as hair type, desired results, and surgeon recommendation. Both techniques offer effective solutions for hair restoration, each with unique advantages.
