Follicular Unit Transplantation South Florida

Follicular Unit Transplantation or FUT is one of the commonly performed hair transplant procedures today. A strip of skin from the donor area is surgically excised containing naturally occurring groups of 1 to 4 hairs, known as follicular units which are then transplanted into the balding areas of the scalp.

WHY CHOOSE A FUT HAIR TRANSPLANT?

Follicular Unit Transplantation allows for a larger number of grafts to be harvested in a single session compared to some other methods. The strip of scalp removed during FUT contains multiple follicular units, resulting in a higher graft yield. FUT preserves the natural grouping of hair follicles (follicular units) as they occur in the scalp. This ensures that transplanted hair looks more natural and mimics the original hair pattern. Unlike Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE), FUT does not require shaving the entire donor area. Patients can keep their existing hair length during the procedure. Although FUT leaves a linear scar at the donor site, it is usually well-hidden by surrounding hair. Proper wound closure techniques minimize scar visibility. Since FUT involves harvesting a strip of scalp, there is minimal wastage of donor hair. The choice of hair restoration method depends on individual factors, including hair loss severity, donor availability, and personal preferences.

Hormone therapy cannot reverse existing hair loss. Hair transplant is the only permanent transgender hair loss treatment.

What Is Female to Male Hair Transplant?

WHAT HAPPENS DURING YOUR FUT HAIR TRANSPLANT PROCEDURE


FUT is performed under local anesthesia in a clinic setting, and most patients handle it well unless they have specific allergies, which should be communicated to the surgeon. During the procedure, which is faster and has a lower follicle transection rate than FUE, you can relax, watch a movie, or chat. As an outpatient office procedure, FUT involves surgically removing a strip of skin with hair follicles, which are then individually prepared for transplantation. Surgical sites are created on the scalp, and the harvested follicles are implanted one by one. The entire process typically lasts between 5 to 8 hours, depending on the number of follicles, with complete healing expected within 2 weeks, allowing a return to regular activities.

The procedure is less time-consuming and less complex but will leave a linear scar than other hair transplant options. Many patients can return to their normal routine the next day, and any swelling and redness is usually gone after a week. You will start seeing new hair growth after a few months.

Frequently Asked Questions

During FUT, a surgeon removes a thin strip of skin from the back of the scalp, typically from where hair is more resistant to balding. The strip contains naturally occurring groups of 1 to 4 hairs, known as follicular units.

The duration varies based on the technique (FUE or FUT) and the number of grafts needed. FUE sessions typically take several hours, while FUT may take longer due to strip harvesting and graft dissection.

Local anesthesia is used during the procedure, so you won’t feel pain. Some discomfort or mild soreness may occur afterward, but it’s manageable by taking Tylenol.

Transplanted hair sheds initially, but new growth begins within a few months. Full results usually appear after 9-12 months.

FUE is considered safe, with minor possible side effects such as tiny white scars where follicles were extracted. In extremely rare cases, there can be infection or tissue death at the surgical site. Temporary side effects like swelling, bruising, and sensitivity may occur but usually resolve within a few days.

You can wash your hair as early as 3 days after hair transplant without massaging your scalp. After 7 days you can shampoo and wash your hair while gently massaging your scalp. After 2 weeks you can resume regular showers.

You can resume all the above after 2 weeks. Wear a hat to protect your scalp from direct sun exposure.

Transgender hair transplants aim to help individuals express their gender identity by adjusting their hairline or scalp coverage. These procedures can be part of a person’s journey toward feeling congruent with their true self.

This procedure creates a more feminine hairline by lowering it and giving it a rounder shape. It’s a common choice for transgender women who want a softer, more feminine appearance.

For transgender men, facial hair restoration encourages thicker and more visible facial hair growth. This procedure aligns with their desired gender expression.

Some trans men opt for chest hair restoration to enhance body hair across the chest. It’s a way to masculinize their appearance.

For transgender and gender-neutral individuals, hair transplantation plays a significant role in aligning their physical appearance with their gender identity. Whether someone identifies as male, female, or non-binary, achieving a hairline, eyebrows, or facial hair that reflects their true self is essential.

Most transgender and gender-neutral patients seek out hair transplantation to align specific features. Creating a more masculine, feminine, or androgynous hairline. Shaping eyebrows to match desired gender expression. Enhancing facial hair for a more masculine appearance.

Trans women transitioning from male to female often desire a feminine hairline. Goals include creating a rounder hairline positioned closer to the front of the skull. Hormone therapy (estrogen) can slow existing hair loss, but it cannot reverse it. A hair transplant restores density and lowers the hairline permanently.

Male hormone therapy may increase facial and body hair but can also cause scalp hair loss. Hair transplantation addresses hair loss due to hormone therapy. Many female-to-male patients seek facial and body hair transplantation for a more masculine appearance.
