FUT Hair Transplant In Turkey

FUT is based on removing a skin strip from the back of the head and the donor area closed with stitches. The skin strip is then cut into individual follicular unit grafts under microscopes which is a very sophisticated procedure. This is why AEK is the only clinic in Turkey that provides high quality FUT hair transplants.

FUT requires extensive surgical training of the surgeon and the surgical team. It requires expertise to remove the skin strip without transecting follicles at the wound edges and close the wound in a way that causes minimal scarring. The graft dissection technique requires extensive training for years to master. A surgical team for FUT requires many of these well-trained technicians.

The advantages of FUT are:

1. It provides the most robust and permanent grafts of the donor area.
2. It usually provides more hair at once compared to FUE.
3. Follicle transection rate (wasted hairs) is lower than FUE.
4. It is more effective in difficult hair types such as afro-hair or very fine hair.
5. It leaves the rest of the donor area untouched for future sessions and thus gives significantly more hair over multiple sessions compared to FUE alone.
6. The scar is left within the densest portion of the donor area and therefore is camouflaged well
7. It may be done without shaving the donor area.
8. It doesn’t leave an open wound and therefore heals very fast.
