The Introduction of a New FUE Instrument
By Dr. Alan S. Feller





I would like to announce the unveiling of a new tool designed specifically for the performance of Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) surgery. It is my hope that every doctor already performing FUE surgery, or those who would simply like to start offering this wonderful procedure to their patients, will explore this new tool and perhaps add it to their own clinical practice.

Incorporated into its design are practical solutions to problems that have plagued the FUE industry since it's introduction to the Western Hemisphere in 2001. Deleterious forces resulting in graft damage during FUE procedures such as: Torsion, Traction, Compression, Overheating, and Desiccation are addressed and minimized using this new instrument like none other.

This tool also offers the unique combination of LOWERING operator skill level requirements while actually RAISING the quality of each and every extraction. This translates to faster 'ramp-up' times for new doctors interested in adding FUE Hair Transplant surgery to their practices; as well as making for easy and near seamless integration into clinics that already offer FUE to their patients.

This device allows not only for greater quality of extraction, but greater speed as well. Much greater. And all without any extra risk to the grafts themselves. The same cannot be said of other FUE tools on the market.

All these unique benefits result in far less fatigue for the doctors, technicians, and patients. It's important not to forget this all important (but often ignored) human factor because in the end any 'work product' will only be as good as the vitality, enthusiasm, and confidence possessed by the doctor and team at the time of the procedure.

The obvious purpose of the tool is to facilitate the FUE procedure for practitioners; but that is only part of a far greater strategy: the sparking of a new and legitimate industry that's inclusive of ALL practitioners-novice and veteran alike.

The bigger picture is to elevate the current 'cottage industry' status of FUE to a more mainstream role in hair transplantation; and to forever strip away the mystery, hype, and secrecy with which it has been unnecessarily surrounded by since it's inception.

All clinics are welcome to this tool. I will not veil it in secrecy nor will I falsely claim it as the 'magic wand' of FUE. As a veteran FUE practitioner I could claim this device solely for my own HT clinics and advertise it as such to gain a competitive edge.

However, for this field to grow, the credibility and exposure of the FUE technique must increase, and I can think of no better way to achieve this than offering a device that makes it easier for hundreds or thousands of other doctors to get into the FUE field themselves. Once they get a taste of the success I've had with FUE over the past 7 years, a greater number of doctors will join the FUE ranks. More successful FUE practitioners means greater numbers of satisfied patients, and thus a more popular procedure with ever increasing demand. Everyone wins.

My company, Advanced FUE Tools, Inc. is not just some name I slapped on the door of my current HT practice clinics just to sell a few tools. Rather, it is a well supported and financed group of businessmen, master-machinists, draftsmen, technicians, problem-solvers, thinkers, and attorneys, who have dedicated themselves to the development of this product for years. Like an actual FUE procedure, TEAMWORK is what made this device not only a reality, but a clinically practical and useful one at that.

I've used this tool, or fundamental aspects of it, through various generations of such devices for just about every FUE procedure that I've posted on the web since 2003. This means it has been used and tested for years.

Each component of this device taken in-and-of itself separately, or combined as one device, has a proven 'real-world' track record. This established pedigree was something I insisted on for years before going public with it. Now is the time for this tool to join the pantheon of practical medical devices that helped form and shape hair transplantation into the enormously successful industry it has become.

I have avoided lengthy technical detail in this write-up as I felt it went beyond the scope of an introduction. Doctors may of course contact me directly if they have any specific questions or concerns.

I will be offering much more information and multi-media about the device in the near future, but wanted to introduce not only the device, but some of the thought and philosophy that made the design and production of this new FUE instrument a reality.

Wow. Scintillating! Congratulations and kudos on reaching the point where you feel comfortable enough in taking this public!

Without getting into technicalities or nuanced specifics....how do you see this elevating yield, as well as what is a "max"-like session in one procedure?

Dr. Feller, will you be starting a Coalition Workshop to demonstrate this new surgical instrument through "FUE"?

BRAVO Dr. Feller!
i applaud your write-up wholeheartedly.

i wish you HUGE success with this tool performance-wise as well as distribution-wise and i hope that it gets sold like hot cakes.
now that this tool is out there in the open for the whole world to see, perhaps a strong oversea demand for it in some third world countries will kick in. again i applaud you for sharing your knowledge openly and exposing the "not-so-secret-now" electric fue tool for all of us. your last statement "I will be offering much more information and multi-media about the device in the near future" shows just how good of a man you are and a real-deal character.

keep up the good work dr. F and keep pushing the envelope!

p.s.
one thing that i want to ask you dr. F is (i'd be kicking myself all night if i didn't), now that this tool speeds up the extraction process and makes the job that much easier, any chance that your fue price will drop down couple of bucks from the big 10?

Dr Feller.

Thanks. I found your write up very interesting and informative. I think that its great that you have shared this not only with fellow doctors but also on this and like forums so that the patients can actually get a little of the insight that is an FUE procedure.
I wish you all the luck with this product and look forward to other doctors comments and in time patient results with this piece of equipment.

The Feller does it again!!!

Dr. Feller,

I applaud you for your detailed and realistic write-up of a seemingly advanced tool that can assist surgeons and their staff dedicated to improving on the follicular unit extraction (FUE) technique.

If you get a chance, it would be interesting to see a video demonstration on how this tool works, technical details explained, close-ups of the extracted follicular units to see the viability of the grafts, and close-ups of the donor area.

Thanks for not only working to improve the FUE technique at your clinic, but for sharing the data with your peers for the betterment of all patients.

Bill

Dr Feller,

Is this the patented Feller Punch that you have been selling on the market for years (.8 and .9mm punches). If not, and this is something new, how does this punch deal with the 3 forces (that you often mention) that are detrimental to FUE success (Torsion etc?)

One more question () -- will this impact people becoming universally/equally suitable for FUE, who otherwise wouldn't be? Or, will it mainly boost the harvesting ability in those who already are solid "candidates" to begin with?
