Hair Grafts: A Detailed Look

Hair Grafts: A Detailed Look

Hair grafts are vital in hair transplantation. They involve harvesting hair follicles from a donor area and transplanting them where hair loss has occurred. These grafts typically consist of one to four hair follicles bundled together and encased in a thin layer of tissue. The appearance of a graft depends on the harvesting and transplantation technique used.

In the FUT method, grafts come from a long tissue strip from the donor area. Each strip undergoes microscopic dissection to separate individual grafts. They may appear as small, white, bulbous structures. On the other hand, in the FUE method, individual grafts are directly harvested from the donor area using a small needle. They may appear as small, cylindrical structures with a slight tissue attachment.

Understanding the number of grafts needed depends on the extent of hair loss and restoration goals. Generally, hair transplantation is a safe, effective, and long-lasting solution for natural-looking results. It’s crucial to choose a skilled and certified hair transplant surgeon for optimal outcomes.
