What is the FEU technique?
It is defined as a capillary micrograft technique aimed at offering a systematic redistribution of hair follicles, which is performed by obtaining grafts from donor areas that have a higher density of hair. Follicular units are extracted and then grafted onto the sparse hair area with the goal of allowing the area to experience new hair growth.
This procedure is usually performed under local anesthesia, being considered a slightly invasive and quite safe surgery. Due to its minimally invasive nature, professionals have the duty to evaluate the conditions of each patient to understand the origin of baldness and determine if it is the appropriate solution or not according to the particularities of the case.
What are the advantages of a hair transplant with the FEU technique?
The results of this technique in the hands of experienced professionals are usually very good in the vast majority of cases. Among its advantages, we find the fact that it does not leave scars or visible marks after the recovery process, offering a completely natural result.
In addition, it offers the possibility of extracting follicular units from other parts of the body, not just the head. Hair growth will occur continuously and completely naturally over time, without loss of sensitivity in the grafted area, or rejection of the implant as it comes from the patient’s body.
Finally, hair will not fall out as if it could occur with topical medication-based baldness treatments that strengthen the existing follicle but will not cause it to regrow and produce new hair. The result of the graft under the FEU technique appears completely natural and it is virtually impossible to determine that a transplant has been received.
Of course, the quality of the results will depend 100% on the experience of the professional who assumes the case.
