FUE Hair Transplant in London – Dr. Sciacca
Natural, Minimal Scarring, Long-Lasting Results
The Follicular Unit Excision (FUE), formerly known as Follicular Unit Extraction, is the latest hair transplantation technique used worldwide, and one of the most common, so you’re in good company!
During FUEs, hairs are harvested individually from the donor area and carefully placed into the recipient areas that need to be treated. Both the doctor and technician must be highly skilled and trained in the FUE method and the micro-instruments it requires. The procedure is minimally invasive and performed under local anaesthesia.
At Timeless Hair Transplant Clinic, our technique is even more specialised for optimal results. After we harvest the graft, the follicular units are then placed into a tiny surgical punch that’s attached to our device. We then carefully separate the units by size, so they are ready for transplantation into the bald or thinning area of concern. Once the follicles are on the recipient site, the hair will continue to grow naturally.
Dr. Sciacca is able to harvest the entire follicle so that the bulb, dermal papillae, capsule, and outer root sheath are undisturbed; this also prevents damage to the follicle. It allows for larger FUE sessions than before, and the harvest is maximised in a quicker amount of time.
With this FUE technique, our patients can enjoy a more efficient, less traumatic harvest of their follicular units, and as there are no stitches and no aftercare, you can get back to work the following day! It leaves only minimal scars in both the donor and transplant areas.
