FUE Hair Transplants
Follicular unit extraction also known as FUE is the latest development in hair transplant methods.
The most important difference between Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) and the Strip Method is the technique used for extracting the follicular units. With FUE, a specialized punch with less than 1mm diameter is used to extract the hair from the scalp. The main advantage of this technique is that follicular units are extracted directly form the scalp rather than in larger groups, which means there is no need for scalpels or stitches.
The H+ Procedure/FUE Hair Transplant
From the donor area of your scalp, and by using H+ Transplantation Tools, the medical team will extract healthy hair follicles without creating any linear incisions or linear scarring.
As opposed to the traditional ‘strip surgery’ techniques carried out in 95% of the world’s hair restoration clinics today, follicular unit procedures like the H+ Technique provide a great improvement for medicine.
With the non H+ invasive strip surgery technique, a long band of skin (typically 28cm x 3cm) is removed from the back of the head using scalpels. General Anesthetic is needed, as opposed to the Local Anesthetic needed for the H+ Procedure.
With the H+ Technique individual donor follicles are placed meticulously into thinning areas using the H+ Follicular Implantation Pen. This technology is specially designed to allow the implanted hair to imitate the angle and directional growth of one’s original hair, which is unique to each of us. Invasive surgical tools are not required which avoids scarring.
In contrast, strip surgery practitioners have to open up slits or holes in the scalp and then implant grafts taken from the strip of donor scalp. Unlike the H+ Procedure, strip surgery can result in long 6 inch scars, and also causes nerve damage and numbness of the scalp.
Finally, the hair-placement zone is penetrated using an H+ Derma-Healing Light. This is an amazing new technology system, which uses Light Emitting Diodes or LED’s.
In simple terms, the H+ Derma Light is light therapy which can be used for the treatment of a wide range of dermatological conditions including: skin rejuvenation, acne, photo damage, vitiligo, wound healing after post elective surgery, non-melanoma skin cancers.
The HDH light helps promote optimum hair growth, by boosting circulation to the transplanted follicles, as well as encouraging rapid healing. Receive your H+ Procedure at a Cosmetic Medical Plus clinic and be assured of the best service. The treatment comes with a full warranty.
