FUE?

Spursman,

 

Just a brief answer for you!

 

FUE [follicular unit extraction]refers to a method by which hairs are harvested from the donar area. An FUE doctor uses small punches usually between the sizes of .5 & 1mm depending on the size of the graft to be extracted. It does leave some scarring but it is not visible to the naked eye. I have met a patient who had just over 3000 FUE's & I couldn't tell he'd had anything done. His hair had just been shaved with a #1 gaurd.

Unfortuneatly, this kind of HT is very time consuming for the doctor & this is reflected in the price. Expect to pay anything between $8 to $14 per graft.

 

Hope this helps.
