The latest in hair loss treatment
About the FUE method
Implanter pens are used for implantation of follicles in FUE treatments. This method improves performance, graft survival and overall results.
Shaving is unnecessary, making it ideal for long hair, women's hair and Afro hair. There is also no need for a hair band, meaning it is less restrictive to daily activities and less aesthetically revealing.
The whole procedure is minimally invasive and done under local anaesthetic, so you will be comfortable, experience minimal discomfort and remain awake. Depending on the scale of hair loss, you may need to undergo a 1 or 2-day surgery. Each day procedure is processed over 5-6 hours. There is no overnight stay and you will go home on the same day with an aftercare package.
The process
Stage 1 - extraction
Follicles are being taken one by one from the back of your head. This is done in a sparse, random order to ensure no bald patches or linear scars are left behind. The equipment we use is a robotic micro-punch that targets multiple strand follicles, minimising graft damage.
During the extraction the harvested follicles are placed immediately into a special solution and kept cold (around - 2-8°C). This protects the grafts and gives an improved survival rate of 90-98%.
Stage 2 - implantation
Once the desired number of grafts have been harvested they are categorised into small groups of follicular units and are prepared for implantation.
The donated follicles will be carefully loaded one by one into the implanter pen allowing immediate implantation into the scalp. This stage is also done under local anaesthetic by skilled surgeon with years of experience.
Stage 3 - aftercare
To help insure maximum survival of the graft and your total satisfaction, we ensure to give every patient a thorough aftercare service. This will include check-up appointments and aftercare products.
