FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction, sutureless method)
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction or sutureless technique) is a hair transplantation method where donor material is harvested from the back of the head or other body parts (beard, chest, groin, legs, etc.) in the form of individual follicular units - grafts, using small (up to 1 mm in diameter) rotating punches - microtrocars, without any incisions or sutures.
In the FUE method, the surgeon uses a rotating punch to make circular, ...
FUT (Follicle Unit Transplantation or strip surgery)
FUT (Follicle Unit Transplantation or strip surgery) is a hair transplant technique in which donor material is harvested in the form of an ellipse-shaped hair-bearing strip from the back of the head. The superficial donor wound is sutured with so-called trichophyte closure. The harvested donor strip is being dissected under stereomicroscopes by experienced surgical assistants to isolate individual, high-quality, undamaged follicular units (see Photos 1 and 2).
Long hair transplantation
Long hair transplantation is a modern technique that involves transplanting follicular units with long (3 cm or more in length) rather than short (2 mm) hair, as is the case with conventional hair transplantation techniques - FUT or FUE. This minor difference has completely changed hair transplantation and opened new horizons for hair transplant surgeons. As with conventional short hair transplant techniques - FUT or FUE, transplanted long hair falls ...
Combination of FUT and FUE
Combination of FUT and FUE is a combination of both techniques in one hair transplant procedure. This method is particularly useful in cases of large degrees of hair loss (Class V-VII) as it allows for the better exploitation of the donor area and the harvesting of large amounts of grafts. Together with Dr. Robert True and Dr. Marcio Crisostomo, Dr. Akaki Tsilosani is a pioneer of this method. Dr. Tsilosani performed ...
BHT (Body Hair Transplant)
BHT (Body Hair Transplant) lets us harvest the hair from the beard, chest, groin, legs, etc. This technique is used when there is insufficient donor supply on the back of the head. Actually, BHT is the same as FUE but is performed in various other areas of the body. We have been using the BHT technique in our practice since 2003, and it allows us to obtain several thousand extra ...
