Fuss Hair Transplant - Abu Dhabi - Dubai

Fuss Hair Transplant (Follicular Unit Strip Surgery) is a surgical procedure used to treat hair loss and baldness. It is a method of hair transplantation where a strip of hair-bearing skin is removed from the back or sides of the scalp (donor area) and then dissected into individual hair grafts. These grafts are then transplanted into the balding or thinning areas of the scalp (recipient area).

Here's a step-by-step overview of how a Fuss Hair Transplant typically takes place:

1. 1.  Consultation: The process begins with a consultation with a hair transplant surgeon. During this consultation, the surgeon will evaluate your hair loss pattern, assess the donor and recipient areas, discuss your expectations, and determine if you are a suitable candidate for the procedure.
2. 2.  Preparation: On the day of the surgery, the donor area is trimmed short to facilitate the extraction of the strip of hair-bearing skin. The surgical team will also sterilize the donor and recipient areas to minimize the risk of infection.
3. 3.  Donor area removal: The surgeon will administer a local anesthetic to numb the donor area. Then, a strip of scalp skin, typically from the back of the head, is surgically excised. The incision is usually sutured or stapled closed, leaving a linear scar that can be covered by surrounding hair.
4. 4.  Graft preparation: The strip of donor tissue is handed over to a team of technicians who carefully dissect it into individual hair grafts containing one to four hair follicles each. The grafts are kept in a specialized solution to ensure their survival and viability.
5. 5.  Recipient area preparation: The surgeon will create small incisions or recipient sites in the balding or thinning areas of the scalp. The size and angle of these sites are crucial to achieving a natural-looking result.
6. 6.  Graft placement: The surgeon or technicians will carefully place the individual grafts into the recipient sites, taking into account the natural hair growth pattern, density, and desired aesthetic outcome. They may use magnification tools to ensure precision during this step.
7. 7.  Post-surgery care: Once the grafts are placed, the surgical team will provide instructions on how to care for the transplanted area. This may include specific guidelines for washing the scalp, avoiding strenuous activities, and using medications to aid healing and prevent infection.

It's important to note that Fuss Hair Transplant is just one of the techniques available for hair transplantation. Other methods, such as Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE), involve individually harvesting hair follicles without the need for a strip of skin. The choice between different techniques depends on various factors, including the patient's specific needs, the surgeon's expertise, and the available donor hair.

If you're considering a hair transplant, it's essential to consult with a qualified hair transplant surgeon who can assess your situation and recommend the most appropriate technique for you.
