Who is concerned by hair implants?

Hair implants are often performed for all people suffering from permanent hair loss.

But what is a hair implant?

The principle of hair transplantation is to take hair from the back, that is, at the level of the Hippocratic crown, in order to implant it on the forehead and the tonsure. The surgeon always recovers the hair located in the lower area of ​​the skull because they are not affected by alopecia for genetic reasons.

There are three technical types of hair implant:

  • FUT : Follicular Unit Transplantation is a method that involves taking a strip of hair from the back of the scalp, approximately 1 to 2 cm wide and up to 20 cm from one ear to the other. The surgeon will then cut the strip into a micro or mini graft. Once the cut is made, the hair follicles are reimplanted with forceps into the reception holes previously made with the scalpel in the bald area. At the end of the procedure, the healing is visible and linear at the back of the skull.

  • FUE : Follicular Unit Extraction for this one, the surgeon will take the grafts one by one using his micro-punch (extraction tool). Like the FUE, the grafts are reimplanted with forceps and in the receiving holes. The only difference with the FUT hair implant is that the healing is almost invisible depending on the number of grafts taken.

  • DHI : Direct Hair Implantation is an evolution of the FUE hair implant method. This is more advanced due to a codification and standardization allowing an optimal result without any trace of scarring. And there is no need to make a receiving hole thanks to a revolutionary pen that precisely injects the hair while controlling the depth, angle and direction of the hair follicle. This hair implant method is only performed by experts and is the most effective in terms of hair regrowth and density.
