Micro Advance (F.U.E)Technique
Micro FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) is a refined and advanced version of the traditional FUE hair transplant procedure. The term "micro" in Micro FUE generally refers to the use of smaller punches and specialized instruments, allowing for more precise extraction and transplantation of individual hair follicles.
Here's a breakdown of the key features of Micro FUE:
Small Punches: In Micro FUE, smaller punches (micro punches) are used to extract individual follicular units from the donor area. These punches typically range from 0.6 to 0.9 millimeters in diameter. The use of smaller punches can result in minimal scarring and a quicker healing process.
Precision Extraction: The smaller punches enable the surgeon to extract hair follicles with greater precision, minimizing trauma to the surrounding tissues. This precision is crucial for maintaining the integrity of the grafts and reducing the risk of damage.
Advanced Extraction Devices: Micro FUE procedures often utilize advanced extraction devices, including robotic systems or motorized tools, which provide controlled and accurate harvesting of hair follicles.
Customized Hairline Design: Micro FUE allows for a more refined and natural hairline design. The surgeon can meticulously place the extracted follicles in a way that mimics the natural direction and angle of hair growth, ensuring a more aesthetically pleasing result.
Reduced Healing Time: The use of smaller punches and the precision in extraction contribute to a faster healing time in the donor area. Patients may experience less discomfort and a quicker recovery compared to older FUE techniques.
It's important to note that the success of any hair transplant procedure, including Micro FUE, depends on factors such as the expertise of the surgeon, the quality of the donor hair, and the overall health of the patient's scalp. Micro FUE has become a popular choice for individuals seeking a minimally invasive and refined approach to hair restoration, providing natural-looking results with minimal scarring. As with any medical procedure, individuals considering Micro FUE should consult with a qualified and experienced hair transplant professional to discuss their specific needs and expectations.
