FUE TECHNIQUE
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) method which has been used since the 1930s is one of the most important and commonly used hair transplant methods. Since this method isn’t a surgical intervention, patients who are planning to have a hair transplant operation can easily choose this technique.

Understanding the Procedure
Before undergoing an FUE hair transplant at medfinders Hair Center or any reputable clinic, it’s essential to understand what will happen during the procedure itself.
Pre-operative Preparations
Anesthesia Options
On the day of the procedure, you can expect a comfortable and welcoming environment at medfinders Hair Center. Depending on your preference and the extent of the procedure, anesthesia options are available.
Most FUE procedures can be performed under local anesthesia, which means only the donor area (usually at the back or sides of the head) will be numbed. This allows you to remain awake during the surgery while experiencing minimal discomfort.
For those who may feel more anxious or prefer not to be fully conscious during the procedure, sedation options can also be discussed with your surgeon

Duration of Surgery
The duration of an FUE hair transplant surgery varies depending on several factors, including how many grafts are needed and individual patient factors. Typically, an FUE procedure lasts several hours to complete.
It’s crucial to note that medfinders Hair Center utilizes high-tech equipment and techniques to ensure precision and efficiency throughout each step of the procedure. This commitment enables patients to have exceptional results in a relatively shorter time frame compared to traditional methods.
Now that we’ve covered what FUE hair transplant is all about let’s move on to uncovering various aspects of this transformative journey.
What Are the Things to Consider in Hair Transplant?
- The hairline must match the face line of an individual: Since everyone has a different face and head structure, the natural hairline is different. Correct identification and planning of the hairline will give a natural look after the hair transplant.
- The implanted hair should have the right density and position: Incorrect planning in hair transplant will prevent a natural look. Similarly, trying to complete a large area in one session will cause a thinner hair look.
- Incorrect hair implant angle: Incorrect hair implant angle will both decrease the permanency by decreasing the hair strength and cause an unnatural look due to improper combing direction.
- Collecting too much hair grafts: Collecting too much grafts or hair roots from the donor region might lead to complications in this region. This could lead to irreversible problems.
Who Cannot Have Hair Transplant?
- Individuals with Hepatitis C
- Individuals with HIV – AIDS
- Individuals with psdeudopelade and lichen planus disease
- Individuals with scarce hair on the donor region
- Individuals with serious chronic diseases
- Individuals with heart disease, diabetes, liver failure, high blood pressure and kidney failure
- Individuals under 18 years old (we recommend the treatment for individuals over 22 years old)
- Consultation
- The hair transplant operation is planned. The individual who will have the hair transplant procedure is informed about the processes and possible complications. The hair line is first designed at the consultation stage.
- Preparation
- At this stage, both the patient and the operation region are prepared for hair transplant. When needed, the patient’s hair is shaved. Then, the patient wears a sterile medical gown. The operation region is sterilized and sedated at this stage.
- Hair Root Collection
- Hair root collection starts by injective saline liquid to the back of the hair which has the strongest hair roots to collect the roots easily and correctly. The patient won’t feel a pain or ache during this operation. The grafts should be collected correctly after injecting saline.
- Opening Channels
- The roots that will be transferred to their hair transplant region should have the same direction and depth as the existing hair roots. The hair transplant channels should be adjusted with a special angle. The number of channels must be the same as the transplanted roots. Multiple techniques can be used for opening channels. The technique is selected as a common decision of the patient and surgeon.
- Hair Transplant
- The hair implant is the last stage of hair transplant. At this stage, the collected roots can integrate to channels. The most important point at this stage is to correctly place the hair roots to channels. The planning of the surgeon is followed and the collected hair is transplanted to determined regions in suitable amount. After this last stage of the hair transplant operation is completed, the surgeon’s instructions must be followed
- Completing Hair Transplant
- P7P procedure is applied to make the hair stronger and accelerate the recovery process after hair transplant. Then, the implant region is dressed.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
During an FUE hair transplant, local anesthesia is commonly used. This means that only the donor area is numbed while you remain awake throughout the procedure.
Local anesthesia allows for a comfortable experience during the surgery while ensuring minimal discomfort. However, if you prefer to be less aware during the procedure, sedation options can be discussed with your surgeon at Hermest Hair Center.
Hair growth following an FUE hair transplant occurs in stages, with initial shedding followed by gradual regrowth over time.
Within a few weeks after the surgery, you may experience shedding of the transplanted hairs. This is a normal part of the process and allows for healthier regrowth.
Within 3-6 months following the procedure, you should begin to notice improved hair growth as new hairs sprout from the transplanted follicular units. Significant results are typically visible within 6-12 months after the surgery, although hair growth may continue to improve for up to 18 months or longer.
It’s important to note that each individual’s experience with hair growth timing may vary based on personal characteristics and adherence to post-operative care instructions
The results of an FUE hair transplant at Hermest Hair Center are designed to be long-lasting and permanent. The transplanted hairs are typically derived from genetically resistant areas, making them less likely to fall out over time.
However, it’s important to understand that existing non-transplanted hairs that were previously susceptible to hair loss due to genetic factors can still be subject to further thinning or loss in the future. To address this possibility and maintain optimal results, your surgeon at Hermest Hair Center may recommend additional medical therapies or treatments tailored specifically for your needs.
