Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE)

FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) hair transplant is a minimally invasive procedure that involves extracting individual hair follicles from the donor area—typically the back or sides of the scalp—and implanting them into areas experiencing hair loss. Unlike traditional methods, FUE does not require a linear incision, making it a scar-free and natural-looking solution. The procedure is particularly popular for its short recovery time, high success rate, and permanent results. At FKS Clinic in London, we offer state-of-the-art FUE hair transplants, ensuring precision, artistry, and patient satisfaction.

It is a significant breakthrough in Hair Transplant operations. FUE Hair Transplant, which stands for Follicular Unit Extraction, is a graft harvesting technique.

With this method, since we use a unique material that we call a punch smaller than 1 mm, there is no scar in the area where the grafts are taken. A large number of hair follicles are harvested in the same session. Thus, it is ensured that the person has dense and natural hair.

Why Choose FKS Clinic for FUE

At FKS Clinic, we use only the most modern, safe and effective hair transplant techniques. With the FUE method, grafts are taken from the back and sides of the donor area. Each graft contains 1-6 hair strands. Then the transaction is started, which is transferred safely to the receiving area.

We do not use the method called FUT. In this method, a surgical incision is made in the donor area, and you will carry the scar caused by this cut for life.

Instead, we focus on the newer method Sapphire FUE and DHI techniques, specifically the improved FUE Sapphire and Micro Sapphire DHI methods.

Frequently Asked Questions

Before the hair transplantation, the suitability of the patient for the operation should be evaluated. For this, it must pass an inspection. For example, Even if the hair transplant operation is successful, individuals with some health problems may not get very productive results. There are some reasons for a person to have a hair transplant. There should be sufficient healthy hair in the donor areas where the grafts will be taken. A person’s expectations from hair transplantation should be realistic. Otherwise, he may not be a suitable candidate for the procedure.

The duration of hair transplantation varies according to the number of grafts to be transplanted in operation. It usually varies between 6-8 hours. You can also listen to music or watch movies during hair transplantation. Most of the patients find the operation time quite reasonable.

About 2 to 4 weeks after hair transplantation, temporary hair loss is experienced. Temporary hair loss after FUE hair transplantation is a natural cycle of the healing process. Hair follicles enter the dormant period before starting the growth cycle and then fall out. In this process, the hair will fall out first. After a while, after the shock shedding process has passed, the transplanted hair will start to grow back.

Hair growth after a transplant is gradual. Initial growth can typically be observed around 3-4 months post-procedure, with full results visible within 9-12 months as your transplanted hair continues to grow.

Our procedures are performed under local anesthesia, which minimizes discomfort. Most patients report a painless experience during the procedure, with manageable discomfort during the initial healing phase.

The number of grafts needed varies depending on the extent of hair loss and desired density. During your consultation at FKS Clinic, our specialists will provide a clear assessment and an estimate of the required grafts.

Recovery after a hair transplant is generally quick, and most patients can resume daily activities within a week. Any minor redness or swelling typically subsides within a few days.
