Details of FUE hair transplant

Follicular unit extraction (FUE) is a type of hair transplant in which individual hair follicles are taken from the skin and moved to another part of the body where hair is thinner or absent. Micropunches are used to extract single follicles which are then moved, leaving behind almost no sign of extraction. 10 to 80% of hair will grow back, expectedly. Transplanted hair typically begins growing back in about 3 to 4 months.
