FUE Hair Transplant Surgery
It's not about how many grafts. It's about your donor area.
Density, caliber, laxity, and where your hair grows now — these decide what's possible. We assess the donor zone first, then count.
The honest question isn't "how many grafts." It's "do you have enough donor hair to make it look natural?"
We measure that first. Density, hair caliber, scalp laxity and your pattern of loss all determine candidacy — and the answer isn't always yes.
Follicular units — the basic graft unit.
A graft is a follicular unit — typically 1 to 4 hairs grouped together, the way hair grows naturally. When we transplant, we move these units, not individual strands, so the result follows your natural growth pattern.
The donor area is usually the back and sides of the scalp, where hair tends to be more stable. We assess its density and caliber before counting anything.
One graft, one to four hairs — and the total number we can safely move is limited by what your donor area can spare.
Strip (FUT) or follicular unit (FUE) — your scalp decides.
FUT (strip): a narrow strip of scalp is removed from the donor zone and dissected under magnification. It can yield a high graft count in a single session, but leaves a linear scar and requires more downtime.
FUE (follicular unit): individual follicular units are extracted one by one. No linear scar, shorter recovery, but more time in the chair and a lower count per session.
Your donor density, scalp laxity, and how you wear your hair determine which method — if any — is suitable. We'll show you both on paper.
Angle, direction and density — planned before the first graft.
The hairline isn't drawn on the day of the procedure. It's designed in advance, using your existing hair pattern as a guide for angle and direction, then marked and agreed with you before any placement begins.
Density is distributed where it shows — the frontal area gets priority, the crown gets what's left. This is resource allocation, not artistry, and we explain the math.
You'll see the design, approve it, and we document it.
Shedding, dormancy, regrowth — a typical pattern.
Most transplanted hairs shed within the first month — that's normal, not failure. The follicles stay put and begin a dormancy phase before new growth appears around month three to four.
Early growth is fine and thin. It thickens and matures through month nine to twelve. This timeline varies by individual; we set expectations in writing, not with marketing promises.
Patience is part of the process. We'll tell you that upfront.

Will the donor area look thin after extraction?
We only extract what the donor zone can safely spare, leaving enough density that the area still looks natural when cut short. This is why donor assessment comes before any counting — over-harvesting is permanent, so we stay conservative.
Can I wear a hat after the procedure?
Yes, but not immediately. We recommend waiting until the day after surgery, and only loose-fitting hats that don't press on the grafts. We give you written aftercare instructions covering this and everything else.
What if I need a second session later?
Some guests do, depending on desired density and available donor. We plan the first session conservatively so a second remains possible. If a second isn't feasible due to donor limits, we'll tell you that from the start.
