FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation)
FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation) is a highly established hair transplant technique where a small strip of hair-bearing skin is carefully removed from the donor area, usually at the back of the scalp. The hair follicles are then meticulously separated into individual grafts under magnification before being transplanted into areas affected by thinning or hair loss.
FUT remains an excellent option for many patients, particularly those requiring a larger number of grafts in a single session or looking to maximise donor hair utilisation while achieving natural-looking, permanent results.
The procedure is carefully planned to ensure the transplanted hair blends naturally with your existing hairline, density, and hair growth pattern.
Natural Results Tailored to You
Hair transplantation is not only about restoring hair — it is about restoring balance, density, and confidence while planning for long-term hair loss.
During a FUT procedure, grafts are carefully prepared and strategically implanted to create soft, natural-looking results tailored to the patient’s facial features and future hair restoration goals.
Because donor hair is taken from permanent areas of the scalp, transplanted follicles are designed to continue growing naturally for years to come.
