Hair transplant in Jadavpur

Introduction:

A hair transplant procedure is not just cosmetic surgery. For most people, a hair transplant in Jadavpur helps them regain their lost confidence. Whether you are 14 or 40, a receding hairline can cause much embarrassment. Hence, we advise you to opt for an FUE or a FUT hair transplant in Jadavpur. It is a safe and FDA-approved procedure. So, why suffer from the consequences of baldness when you can reverse it permanently?

FUT or FUE – which one will be right for you? Let the experts decide.  

Which is better FUE or FUT?

FUT and FUE – both techniques are used for a hair transplant in Jadavpur. None is superior to the other. It depends on the degree of your baldness and your desired result which one will be appropriate for you. Moreover, your general health condition also plays an important factor for your hair surgeon to decide which hair transplant procedure in Jadavpur will suit you. Both FUT and FUE techniques have their advantages and disadvantages in different aspects. It involves the judicious application of knowledge on the part of your surgeon to assess these factors. Thereafter, they can decide which technique to apply for your hair transplant in Jadavpur.

For a hair transplant in Jadavpur, whether you extract donor hair follicles by cutting a strip of skin or by punching out individual hair follicles remains the basic difference between an FUE and a FUT procedure. So, how does this simple difference provide different outcomes? Why does this one difference create a debate regarding which procedure to choose? Let us find out.

  • Scar formation:

As you may be well aware, a FUT procedure involves cutting a tissue strip from the donor area of your scalp. Hence, suturing is done in that area. This leaves behind a linear scar in the area. This scar remains lifelong. But it is often invisible because surrounding hairs grow and cover it.

By an FUE procedure, individual hair follicles are taken out. The use of a punch tool allows this. Hence, there is no great scarring. Small whitish dots appear in the places of the donor area where a hair follicle was taken out. The scars are, therefore, tiny and inconspicuous.

  • Time:

The time taken for either procedure depends upon the following factors:

  • The extent of your baldness
  • The number of grafts needed for maximum coverage of the bald areas of the scalp
  • Skillset of the surgeon

Considering the above factors, an FUE hair transplant session in Jadavpur lasts longer than FUT. This is because, in FUE, the surgeon harvests individual hair follicles. This requires more time.

On average, an FUE hair transplant in Jadavpur takes 6-8 hours. Longer sessions, called “mega sessions” are also done sometimes. These sessions last 10-12 hours.

A FUT hair transplant in Jadavpur takes between 4 hours and 6 hours.

  • Recovery time:

FUT or FUE hair transplants in Jadavpur mean you do not need to stay in the hospital. You can go home right after your surgery. In either procedure, you can resume office from the next day itself. But for a better outcome, we advise you to take adequate rest for up to 3 days after your hair transplant in Jadavpur. You should be able to do strenuous physical activity 7-14 days after the surgery. Your doctor will give you clearance for the same.

The recovery process slightly differs. In FUT, you may experience mild to moderate pain, swelling, or redness on your scalp. In FUE, you need not worry about this. You may feel slight uneasiness and discomfort on your scalp. But it will wear off after 24 hours. Moreover, you do not have to go for cutting off your sutures in an FUE hair transplant in Jadavpur. So, this is a plus point.

  • Number of hair grafts:

With a FUT hair transplant, you can transplant up to 4000 or 6000 grafts in a single sitting. On the other hand, the FUE technique allows the transplanting of a maximum of 3000 hair grafts in a single sitting.   

  • Graft survival:

A FUT procedure involves slitting the entire skin strip from the scalp. This allows the hair follicles to stay intact. The fatty tissue in the scalp layer provides nutrients to the hair follicles and preserves them. Thus, hair grafts have a better chance of survival by FUT hair transplant in Jadavpur. 1-2% of hair grafts may get damaged during extraction. This is nominal.  

FUE hair transplant in Jadavpur involves the excision of single hair follicles. Thus, 2-5% of hair follicles may get damaged during the process. The three-step procedure during FUE hair transplant in Jadavpur minimizes this percentage.

  • Success rate:

95-98% of FUT hair transplants are successful. FUE hair transplants have a success rate of 90-95%.

  • Cost:

An FUE hair transplant in Jadavpur is costlier than a FUT hair transplant. Depending on the number of hair grafts you need, a FUT hair transplant will cost you around INR 30,000 to INR 1,60,000. On the other hand, an FUE hair transplant in Jadavpur begins from INR 40,000. It may extend up to INR 2,00,000.

Does FUT or FUE have better results?

The goal of a hair transplant surgery in Jadavpur is to cover your baldness. Irrespective of the technique you choose, the result is a head full of natural-looking hair.

Ultimately, it comes down to two factors that will determine your hair transplant results:

  • Experience and qualification of your surgeon
  • Skills of the surgeon
  • How well do you follow the before and after guidelines
  • Your genetics

Both FUT and FUE provide natural-looking results. But the FUE procedure indeed needs more expertise. You have to be extra careful to preserve the grafts during their excision and storage.

You need to have realistic expectations from your hair transplant results in Jadavpur.

FAQs

What is a hair transplant?

A hair transplant is a surgical procedure which involves taking the hair follicular unit from the back and side of the head ("donor area") and planting them to the areas undergoing hair loss or thinning. A follicular unit consists of one, two or three hair strands along with their hair root (follicle). Each follicular unit or graft is cut out individually under the microscope/ magnification and transplanted into the minute incisions made by needles at the affected area. This latest technique is also known as the follicular unit micro-grafting.

How long does a hair transplant procedure take?

Depending on the degree of baldness a session may require a grafting of about 700 to 3,000 hair follicular units which takes about 6 hours to 10 hours of surgery on an outpatient basis.
