Steps before Procedure
On the day of arrival, you will be greeted by any member of the surgeon’s team. They will ask you whether you have followed the given instructions or not.

In actual procedure, surgeons will use either one of two methods to perform surgery. If the follicular unit transplant -FUT is used then follicles are harvested from the donor area of the scalp in the shape of a strip that is not more than 1.2 cm in size. These follicles are placed under a binocular microscope where the follicles get separated from each other and also from the excess fatty tissues. The follicles are usually harvested from the scalp donor area which are considered the permanent donor zone. Wounds that are left in the donor area are stapled by using stainless steel sutures which are especially designed for the purpose of cosmetic surgery. A linear scar remains on the scalp for the lifetime of the patient.

If the surgery is performed through follicular unit extraction, then grafts are extracted one by one from the scalp. A motorized procedure is used to extract grafts from the donor area from surrounding tissues. The size of punch used for Fue normally ranges 0.7 mm to 1 mm. Later these separated follicles are picked up by the surgeon. No linear wound remains there in the donor area post operatively. Tiny thousands of white follicles remain there but they can be concealed with further hair growth.

Follicles are inserted into these sites in a natural pattern and direction. Implanted follicles grow into healthy hairs after a few months of this procedure.
