Treatment Overview
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) is a surgical hair restoration technique.
It involves extracting individual hair follicles from donor areas (typically the back of the scalp) and implanting them into areas of thinning.
FUE is used in the management of:
- Male and female pattern hair loss (androgenetic alopecia)
- Stable hair thinning with sufficient donor hair
- Selected cases of localised hair loss
The procedure redistributes existing hair rather than creating new hair.
