FUE hair transplant (Follicular Unit Extraction) is a technique that allows hair to be extracted from the most populated areas of the head (normally the nape of the neck) to graft it into areas where there is little or no hair. The particularity of this technique is that the extraction is done hair by hair (actually follicle by follicle, which is the base from which several hairs sprout) and by relocating the patient’s own hair we obtain a millimetric, natural and scar-free result.

How long does the intervention last?

It depends on the amount of hair to be transplanted. FUE hair transplant is usually carried out in one day, in a session of up to 8 hours with several breaks. If the amount of hair to be transplanted is very high [3500-4000] it can be done in two sessions, leaving a few days or weeks to pass.

After the transplant

The patient goes home on the same day, with the following recommendations:

  • Do not wash your hair or sunbathe for two days after the intervention
  • Take painkillers and anti-inflammatories if there is a lot of discomfort, according to the established guidelines
  • Keep the treated area clean, if necessary with a bandage.

A series of control sessions are also scheduled for the months following the transplant. In these sessions, the level of implantation is checked to be adequate, photos are taken, and reinforcement sessions with PRP are carried out (see below).

Visible results in 3 months

The results of the transplant are visible after three months. The final results appear between 9 and 12 months. After the intervention, many patients usually experience the following stages:

  • Month 1: seeing follicles where there were none before gives a feeling of instant improvement
  • Month 2: the follicles settle, hair falls out and doubts arise
  • Month 3: it begins to grow again (this time permanently)
  • Months 4-6: the final results begin to be seen
  • Months 6-12: the scalp begins to show its final appearance

Reinforcement with PRP sessions

FUE hair transplant maximizes and accelerates its results when combined with a PRP treatment. We recommend 1-2 PRP sessions before the transplant, and 2-3 sessions after.

PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) is a substance obtained by extracting blood from the patient, centrifuging it and adding a platelet activator. This plasma contains nutrients and growth factors that stimulate the cells to generate new tissue. PRP has many applications in cell regeneration therapies. When we inject it into the scalp, the hairs, both grafted and original, sprout from the follicles faster, thicker and better looking.

PRP sessions can be done once every 21-30 days before and after the implant. Once the treatment is finished, it is advisable to undergo 3-4 sessions per year.

 

The FUE hair transplant step by step

In the first visit between patient and specialist, the case to be treated will be evaluated, the amount of hair to be transplanted will be set and an appointment will be made for the day of the intervention.

Once the intervention has begun, two areas on the head are marked: one from where the hair will be extracted (normally the nape of the neck), and another where the hair graft will be made. The extraction area is disinfected and local anesthesia is applied.

Next, an incision is made for each follicle with the Punch – an instrument similar to a pen, the tip of which makes small cylindrical incisions with which we section the follicle. Once the follicle is sectioned, it is extracted with tweezers and stored in a petri dish.

When we have extracted the necessary amount of follicles, we proceed to perform the hair graft in the desired area. At this point it is important to orient the implanted hairs in the same direction as the original hairs, so that the hair grows with a natural appearance.

Once the hair transplant is finished, the The area is disinfected, painkillers and anti-inflammatories are prescribed, the patient is given an appointment for the next check-up and sent home. For 24/48 hours after the procedure, the patient must not wet the scalp or expose it to the sun. Rest in a cool place is recommended to prevent sweating and improve healing and fixation.

Does the FUE hair transplant hurt?

The FUE hair transplant is performed under local anesthesia, so the only discomfort is felt when the injections are administered during the intervention.

Some patients report discomfort and numbness after spending many hours in the same position. However, this is a personal matter since other patients even fall asleep. In any case, in the longer sessions we take periodic breaks to avoid fatigue.

Does it leave a scar?

No. FUE hair transplantation makes a microincision of 0.8-1 mm in diameter for each grafted follicle. These incisions are tiny, they heal in a few days like any superficial wound with a scab and do not leave a scar.

Will my hair fall out again after the transplant?

The grafted follicles have a survival rate of 90%, that is, if we transplant 1000 follicles, 900 will survive, which at 2-4 hairs per follicle means a quantity of between 1800 and 3600 hairs. In addition, the follicles extracted from the donor area are stronger than those from alopecia areas, they normally do not fall out.

Is FUE hair transplantation suitable for women?

Yes. FUE hair transplantation can be carried out on both men and women with complete normality.

Where is the transplant performed, in the clinic or in a hospital?

It is performed in our clinic, located in the centre of Valencia. We are at San Vicente Mártir 52, next to Plaza del Ayuntamiento.
