FUE NeoGraft vs. Traditional Strip Hair Transplant

• Hair loss becomes more and more prevalent with
  age, in both men and women. In addition to that,
  many individuals are simply genetically
  predisposed to thin hair, which gradually thins
  out completely or in patches. Since many
  societies place a premium on have a full head of
  hair, it can be incredibly important to some
  people that they maintain a full head of hair in
  order to maintain their desirability and social
  utility. For those looking to avoid the effects
  of male or female pattern baldness, there are two
  options available traditional strip hair
  transplantation or FUE NeoGraft.

What is traditional strip hair transplantation?

• Otherwise known as Follicular Unit
  Transplantation (FUT), traditional strip hair
  transplantation involves removing a long strip of
  scalp and hair from the back of the head and then
  implanting those strips to areas of that head
  that have hair loss. Since the posterior of the
  scalp tends to be the best area for hair growth,
  samples are (as an industry standard) removed
  from that area of the scalp. As such, the scalp
  on the back of the head tends to lose feeling.
• Recovery time for this procedure is generally
  2-3 weeks, and it is necessary for the patient to
  return to their surgeon in order for a review of
  the graft and the removal of staples. FUT
  patients often cite the long linear scar at the
  back of the head as a drawback in addition to
  thelong healing times. Also, according to
  Dr.Torgerson, a facial plastic surgeon based out
  of Toronto, another topcomplaint among patients
  of strip hair transplant is that they can not
  wear different hair styles. Patients that undergo
  the strip procedure need to have the hairs in the
  back of their heads long to cover up the scar.

What is FUE NeoGraft?

• FUE, or Follicular Unit Extraction, is a
  precision based transplantation procedure that
  involves the removal of individual follicles and
  replanting of those follicles elsewhere in the
  scalp. Small, microscopic punches are made in
  order to extract intact follicles. Tiny micro
  blades and needles are then used to prepare the
  implantation site, where the uprooted follicles
  are then replanted. FUE surgical time can vary
  from one long session to several short sessions
  and anything in between.
