FUE HAIR TRANSPLANT SURGERY
What Is An FUE Hair Transplant?
FUE (Follicular Unit Excision) hair transplant surgery is a procedure that involves extracting individual hair follicles from the back and sides of your head and transplanting them to a part of the scalp that suffers from thinning or balding. We deliver excellence in FUE Hair Transplant Surgery.

Why FUE Hair Transplant Surgery?
FUE transplant surgery involves relocating hairs from the back and sides of the head to a balding area such as a receding hairline or thin crown. Over a 6-12 month period, these hairs will grow, recreating hair where it has previously been lost. The end result is a rejuvenated appearance of naturally grown hair.
The process takes place whilst the patient is under local anaesthesia. Once the patient is unable to feel anything, our leading surgeons extract each hair follicle individually.
The extracted hair follicles are then reinserted using specialist sub-millimetre techniques, puncturing the areas of the scalp that are due to receive the transplanted hair follicles. The next part of the procedure applies an artistic touch as our surgeons must consider hair depth, angulation, direction, and density to provide as natural and realistic a look as possible.
The donor area where the hair has been extracted from, heal with dot-like scars less than a millimetre in diameter. These FUE scars cannot be seen once the hair has grown to a grade 1 or 2.
In the first 1-3 months, the newly implanted hair will shed before growing again in 4-12 months, this is when the full results will be realised.
As hair is taken from an area that does not suffer from the underlying hair loss process, FUE hair transplants should last for 20 years and potentially a lifetime.
Is FUE right for me?
There are a number of factors that go into deciding whether or not you might be a candidate for an FUE hair transplant.
The first thing that needs to be decided is why you are losing hair and diagnosing your hair loss. If you have a hair loss condition that is amenable to surgery we then evaluate whether or not there is healthy hair growth on the back and sides of the head. These donor areas are where our hair transplant surgeons will harvest healthy hair follicles, relocating them to the affected hair loss areas of the scalp.
Other considerations include the texture of the hair, hair colour, and the type of hair. Take a look at our dedicated page that explores who is a good candidate for FUE.
