For individuals experiencing significant hair loss, strip-harvesting hair transplants can permanently restore an entire, youthful hairline and appearance. The FUT technique involves surgically removing a strip of hair-bearing tissue and dissecting it into hundreds of grafts for transplantation. When performed expertly, hair transplant FUT maximizes graft yield and survival for dramatic, natural-looking results. Here, we explore how Beverly Hills Hair Restoration optimizes FUT procedures.
Understanding FUT Hair Transplants
FUT stands for follicular unit transplantation. It is a refined version of the traditional hair transplant technique performed successfully for decades.
With FUT, a thin strip of tissue is extracted from the donor region on the back and sides of the scalp, where hair is programmed to grow lifelong. The excised strip containing hundreds of follicular units is then dissected under magnification into individual grafts containing 1-4 hairs.
The surgeon implants these grafts meticulously and precisely into tiny incisions in the balding areas. When done correctly, the transplanted hair seamlessly blends with existing hair.
Advantages of FUT Hair Restoration
FUT offers many benefits that make it a top choice among hair transplant candidates:
- Proven track record over 30+ years of procedures
- Allows transplantation of a large number of grafts – up to 5000 in one session
- Excellent graft survival and growth rates
- Lower cost per graft compared to FUE
- It is ideal for extensive hair loss, requiring many grafts
- Enables natural hairlines with selective single-hair grafts
FUT is optimal for dramatically restoring hairlines and density in advanced thinning or baldness cases.
Maximizing Graft Yield from the Donor Strip
A significant advantage of strip harvesting is the high number of grafts obtained from one excised piece of tissue. In skilled hands, the yield of viable follicles can surpass 5000 grafts from a single donor strip.
Several techniques allow our surgeons to optimize graft yield:
- Meticulous removal preserves tissue integrity
- Precise dissection by expert technicians
- Stereo microscopic visualization
- Customizing donor strip size based on laxity and scalp mobility
- Consideration for future procedures to conserve resources
Our doctors can extract the maximum number of healthy follicles from each donor strip through an artful approach and years of specialty training. This means excellent coverage potential in one session.
Optimizing Graft Growth and Survival
Transplanted hair’s successful growth and survival are equally crucial as graft yield. Our meticulous protocols give patients the best possible growth rates and the lowest risk of graft loss.
Key aspects that promote graft survival include:
- Careful handling, cooling, and storage of extracted grafts
- Avoiding graft dehydration before placement
- Appropriate recipient site creation for each graft
- Precise graft placement at optimal density, angles, and direction
- Gentle implantation avoiding trauma to follicular cells
- Atraumatic removal of existing hairs at recipient sites
- Patient counseling on recovery care to nurture new growth
Through artistry and care, our surgeons achieve thriving results from FUT procedures. Patients are amazed at the naturalness and fullness attained.
