Hair Root Extraction is a fundamental step in hair restoration, involving the precise removal of hair follicles from the donor area. This process is critical for ensuring the viability and success of the transplanted hair, as it determines the quality of the grafts used in the procedure.
In Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE), individual hair follicles are extracted using micro-punch tools, leaving minimal scarring and preserving the aesthetics of the donor area. Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) involves removing a strip of scalp, from which follicles are carefully dissected. Both techniques require meticulous attention to detail to avoid damaging the follicles.
Once extracted, the hair roots are preserved in a nutrient-rich solution to maintain their health until implantation. Proper handling during this phase is crucial for ensuring graft survival and achieving natural-looking results.
Patients benefit from advancements in hair root extraction techniques, which have minimized discomfort and improved outcomes. This step lays the foundation for successful hair restoration, delivering high-quality grafts that ensure lasting results.
