WHAT IS FUE - FUE FOLLICULAR UNIT EXTRACTION?

While performed under local anesthesia, the hair or follicular units are individually harvested or punched from the back of the scalp or donor area in the hands of Dr. Yates using whatever instrument is best for his patient to obtain optimal results. With the traditional strip method for hair transplantation, not only do you have to take all hairs (even weak hair), the patient also incurs a painful cut, stitches and scar that they have to live with and conceal the rest of their lives.

Dr. Yates utilizes state of the art biological solutions such as Hypothermosol and ATPv (adenosine triphosphate) to store, protect and ensure optimal survival of these valuable grafts while awaiting transplant into the balding areas of the scalp for both men and women.

The finishing touch is completed by Dr. Yates artistic ability to create a natural hairline and hair density in his patient’s areas of thinning throughout the scalp. He uses micro-incisions to create sites to place each individual follicular unit, which will grow into a natural, undetectable pattern over the next year.

The results – – phenomenal, natural, permanent hair that patients can style anyway they desire without a scar in the back of the scalp.

  • Great to harvest body hair like beard and chest hair

ADVANTAGES OF

WITHOUT SHAVING YOUR HEAD

**If someone is unable to shave the back of his or her scalp for FUE, he also has an answer for this. Dr. Yates is able to creatively trim the hair so that the donor area is completely concealed and you can return to work immediately without any visible signs of a procedure. Other body hair such as chest, back and other hair can also be utilized if necessary for transplantation onto your scalp. Dr. Yates is able to offer many options to his patients.

BEARD HAIR FOLLICULAR UNIT EXTRACTION

This exciting breakthrough is another new and innovative technique mastered by Dr. Yates. This option is offered to those individuals who have exhausted their donor hair from the scalp. Local anesthesia is used.

Even more technically challenging, FUE performed in the beard hair area requires greater precision and attention to detail because of the delicate tissue in the neck and vital nerve and vascular structures that lie very close to the surgical area. Beard hair, although a different texture from the hair on the head, is always in an anagen or growth phase so offers perfect added density to thinned areas of the scalp.
