With the personal trauma suffered from sub-optimal surgery, Dr Reddy has a personal motto of making sure that none of his patients go through the same. This 32 year old gentleman presented to us with a Norwood 6 hairloss pattern. He had done extensive research and had ruled out FUT as he was not keen on having a scar. He understood that his options were limited to either having a high hairline or poor density. He chose to go with a high hairline. Dr Reddy qualified him for an FUE as he had a tight scalp and a reasonable donor area. Dr Reddy was able to extract 4703 grafts over 2 days using a 1.00 mm punch. Acell was extensively used for the donor and recipient areas. He was prescribed Propecia to thicken his crown hair. Before the transplant: Immediately after the transplant: 1 week after - note the lack of redness and healing of the donor area: 9 months later:

Hi, I can read here a lot of discussion over FUE and FUT. I would like to point out few facts about FUE and FUT surgery. These are views of Dr Raghu Reddy: 1. Quality control After the strip is disected, it is generally passed on to a team of technicians who trim the strip into individual grafts. During the process of trimming there is an unknown entity that comes into play. That is the skill and motivation of the technician. Hence it is a known fact that surgeons that have consistent teams achieve far better results than someone that relies on freelance technicians. Whilst exploring an option of a strip surgery, it is advisable for the patient to meet the team or get to know the team that will be operating. 2. Scarring It is wellknown fact that strip surgery can produce significant scarring in the donor area, when perfromed by untrained hands. A simple test a patient can perform is to pinch the back of a scalp to check for signs of laxity. If the client is known to have a tight scalp the chances of poor scarring with a strip surgery increases exponentially. There is a common misconception that FUE leads to pitting scarring. Though it is a fact that badly performed FUE can lead to visible “dot” like marks on the back of the scalp, with improvements in FUE and with the use of Acell, the chances of visible scarring is negligible and by following certain protocols and extraction there is evidence to suggest that the scarring is almost invisible. 3. Placement of grafts Historically strip surgery has been promoted as a surgery that has better outcomes because of the presence of galar fat at the bottom of the grafts. Whilst it might offer better leverage for the technicians whilst replacing the grafts, studies have shown that the growth of grafts is not dependant on the presence of the galar fat. With improvements in extraction and placement of grafts by FUE, the outcomes are much better than with a strip surgery. 4. Quality of grafts During the process of extraction of follicles using a strip surgery the number of follicles per graft is significantly less compared to that extracted by FUE. This is because most of the grafts that are extracted with a strip surgery have follicles containing single and double hairs. Whereas with an FUE, the surgeon has complete control over the grafts and he can pick and choose the ones that give maximum benefit to the client.
