FUE Hair Transplant for Men

ReShape U Clinic’s Hair Transplant surgeons specialise in FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) Hair Transplants for men with over a decade of experience designing and creating a natural male hairline.

The Problem

Up to 50% of men will have experienced some degree of hair loss by the time they reach 50. And for many, hair loss will occur far earlier whilst they are in their 20s, 30s or even late teens. The main cause for 95% of men experiencing a thinning scalp is something called Androgenetic Alopecia – more commonly referred to as Male Pattern Baldness. The hereditary condition occurs when a male hormone called dihydrotestosterone causes certain follicles to shrink and produce abnormal hair with a shorter life.
In Male Pattern Baldness, the first area patients typically see hair loss in is the crown, followed by thinning around the hairline and temples, before the mid-anterior scalp is affected. However, patients all have different experiences of the condition and some may see varying patterns depending on their case.
Other causes of hair loss in men include stress, disease, and physical reactions to medication, though your case is individual to you. Hair loss is always about much more than a receding hairline. It can deeply affect an individual’s confidence and self-esteem, and we believe that’s the most important thing to address.

The FUE Procedure

FUE, involves removing healthy hair follicles directly from a donor area on the scalp (usually at the back of the head where the hair is plentiful) and grafting them onto the bald or thinning areas. And, because the treatment is minimally invasive, there is no detectable scarring and, in most cases, patients are able to return to work after 4-5 days. The method uses a specialised punch device, ranging in diameter from 0.6mm – 0.9mm, to extract follicular units complete with necessary glands. This separates surrounding tissue from the unit, meaning minimum trauma and better results, as well as minimal risk of any detectable scarring. Transplantation of all the vital elements of each hair follicle means a better survival rate and better growth. The treatment is performed using specially designed instruments, allowing the surgeon to work with the upmost precision for natural-looking, undetectable results.

Advantages of FUE at ReShape U Clinic

You will be treated by highly experienced Doctors. Our Hair Transplant surgeons are specialised in FUE and treat hundreds of patients every year.
FUE is a minimally invasive treatment, carried out under local anaesthesia – many patients either watch TV or even fall asleep during the procedure.
Unlike the Strip (FUT) procedure, you won’t require any stitches after your treatment. This means that the recovery time is also reduced when compared to Strip surgery.
We use the finest instruments, resulting in as minimal trauma to your scalp as possible.

Results

Thanks to our advanced skills and techniques, results can be undetectable.
Following treatment, you won’t have any linear scarring across the back of your head – you’ll be free to keep your hair long or short.
We work by the hair, not per graft – this ensures that only the strongest, healthiest follicles are selected for your transplant procedure.
