FUSS (FUT) Follicular Unit Strip Surgery
Removal of a strip of hair-bearing skin
Removal of a strip of hair-bearing skin
This method is also known as F.U.T. - Follicular unit Transplantation
The removal of the hair is done in the dermis of the nape of the neck (donor zone) from a strip of the scalp from which the grafts (in follicular units of 1, 2 , 3 or 4 hair) are minutely extracted with precision
In the meantime the practitioner sutures the parts where the strip has been removed.
The extracted grafts are then re-implanted in the area to be covered (receiving zone)
Advantage
This method makes it possible to implant between 1000 to 3000 grafts (2500 to 8000 hair) in one single session of 3 to 6 hours. Today, this is the recommended technique to regain a good density rapidly.
