FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation), also known as the "strip method," is a surgical hair transplant technique in which a narrow strip of scalp is removed from the donor area at the back of the head. This strip is then dissected into individual follicular units, which are implanted into thinning or bald areas of the scalp.
FUT is a time-tested method offering a high graft survival rate. It is particularly suitable for patients with advanced hair loss who require transplantation over a large area.
Who is FUT suitable for?
Individuals with advanced hair loss (Norwood stage III and above),
When a large number of grafts is needed in a single session,
Patients with suitable scalp elasticity and skin type in the donor area,
As an alternative to FUE if individual graft harvesting is not feasible,
For those who do not mind a thin scar in the donor area.
Consultation with a trichologist or surgeon and detailed planning of the new hairline,
A strip of hair-bearing scalp is surgically removed under local anesthesia,
The donor area is closed with fine sutures, resulting in a thin, barely visible scar,
Under microscopic conditions, the strip is divided into thousands of follicular unit grafts,
Each graft is then implanted into prepared micro-channels in the recipient area.
Recovery and results
Recovery may take slightly longer than with FUE; mild discomfort at the suture site for a few days is common,
Sutures are typically removed after 10–14 days; the patient can gradually return to normal activities,
Transplanted hairs will initially shed within 2–4 weeks, followed by new growth,
Full results become visible after 9–12 months,
Transplanted hair grows naturally and can be cut, styled, and combed.
