At Pure Dermatology Cosmetic & Hair center, not only do we offer PRP for hair loss but we cover all grounds for hair restoration including Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) to men and women seeking a solution for density. This minimally invasive outpatient procedure extracts follicles one by one. The back of the head is used as a donor site, as it helps minimize discomfort and genetically this is where hair grows the best. Each follicle may contain 2 to 4 hairs and is separated into units. These units are then inserted in an area where the hair is thinning or bald via a small incision. To achieve a natural look from your transplant depends on many factors, such as anterior hairline design, good density, the direction of implantation, use of appropriate follicular units in each location.
Generally each follicle contains 2-4 hairs and is then separated into units. Typically Dr. Nader Ronaghi can get thousands of hairs placed during one treatment session.
As each follicle unit is extracted, it will be placed in a special solution. This solution extends the life of the graft outside the body and will help enhance the survival of the graft once it is inserted. Newport Hair Clinic uses implanters to help with the placement of each follicle. This will help increase the survival rate of each follicular unit. It allows for a more precise placement by ensuring accurate direction, depth and angle all reach their correct location.
One session can take up to four hours or more. Some patients may require more than one treatment to achieve a full head of hair. It will highly depend on the finishing results that you desire.
