FUT (Follicular Unit Transplant) or Strip Hair Transplant Technique

Strip method of hair transplantation is another effective method used in hospitals for growing hair, also know as Follicular Unit Transplantation(FUT). It is not as bad as other clinics depict it to be. Though there are a few shortcomings of this method as considered against the FUE procedure, yet it does have certain advantages as well.

In this method of transplantation, a streak of skin is removed from the main source (where the hair are dominant) and then the hair grafts are separated from it and transplanted on the area where the individual wants the hair to grow. The area from where the hair were originally extracted from, are stitched with the help of sutures. This takes a couple of weeks to heal. After two weeks or so the cut is entirely healed, the procedure leaves a scar which will only be visible when an individual completely plans to get his head shaved. The most prominent disadvantage of this procedure is lesser yield than FUE hair transplant technique or Perfect-i technique. The wound also takes a lot of healing time but nonetheless it is much faster and cheaper than Follicular Unit Extraction procedure and can be considered if you wish to go for economical hair transplantation.
