Type of Hair Transplant Methods
Hair transplants can be done in various ways. Some of the most common techniques are follicular unit transplantation and follicular unit extraction. Some innovative techniques have also come up in recent years where robots are used to perform this procedure.
Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) involves the removal of a skin strip from the head of the patient which has healthy hair follicles present on it. These follicles are then extracted from the skin and transplanted into the head where hair loss is prominent. This type of hair transplant can cost you around $2,200 to $2,300.
Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) involves the surgeon extracting the healthy hair follicles from the patient’s head. No skin is removed from the head for the collection of these follicles. These follicles are then added back to the region where loss loss has occurred. This type of hair transplant can cost you around $2,400 to $2,500.
