Is FUE Hair Transplant the Best Harvesting Technique?
-
For the transplanted hairs, Vinay Rawlani MD both procedures produce excellent outcomes. The follicular unit extraction technique has the benefit of reducing donor scarring. The one disadvantage of follicular unit removal is that donor graphs must be taken from a shaved region. The strip approach creates a long linear and maybe noticeable scar, although it is not necessary to start shaving the hair in order to be more apparent throughout the process. If one has already had long hair in the donar area and the teams shaves a section of the posterior scalp where we borrow hair, the follicular unit extraction can simulate this. As a result, the remaining longer hairs can be used to conceal the donor region until it grows out.
