It is done by extracting individual follicles and then grafting them to the problem area. The main criteria for FUE treatment are that the patient needs to have enough donor area for harvesting the hair to restore hair growth in the targeted area. However, you can always go for free or paid consultation before the transplantation to get advice on whether or not FUE is suitable for you.
FUT Technique - Unlike the grafting of one hair follicle at a time, in the FUT technique, a strip of healthy hair skin is surgically removed (generally from the back of the head) and implanted to the concerned area. The stitched area is bandaged and topical medicines are applied to recover in 1-2 weeks.
Both these methods have their difference in results - the primary difference is that FUE doesn’t result in noticeable scarring, whereas the FUT hair transplant results in scars on your scalp. Despite the scarring, the FUT is mostly preferred due to the post-treatment result - more hair growth.
