The FUE Scalpel is a specialized tool used in hair transplantation to facilitate the precise extraction of follicular units during Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE). This instrument is designed to minimize trauma to the scalp and ensure the viability of extracted grafts.
The scalpel features a sharp, circular blade, typically ranging from 0.6 mm to 1.2 mm in diameter. This allows surgeons to isolate individual follicles with accuracy, avoiding damage to surrounding tissue. Modern designs may include motorized or serrated options to enhance efficiency and control.
The success of FUE procedures heavily relies on the quality of the scalpel and the surgeon’s expertise. Proper use of this tool ensures high graft survival rates, minimal scarring, and faster healing for the patient. Advanced scalpels also allow for higher graft yields in shorter timeframes.
Patients benefit from the precision offered by FUE scalpels, which contribute to natural-looking results and a comfortable recovery. This tool is a cornerstone of minimally invasive hair restoration, delivering effective and satisfying outcomes.
