Follicular Unit Transplant (FUE) is a hair transplant solution that can help you enjoy a more youthful look and regain confidence. Loss of hair is one of the most difficult cosmetic issues to live with, yet millions of men and women in the United States live with thinning hair and baldness every day. But hair loss does not need to define you or your aesthetic! There is an effective hair loss solution near Miami.

Low confidence, as well as depression and anxiety, are common side effects of hair loss that are commonly resolved with successful hair transplant treatment, such as FUE. FUE’s hair restoration technique is a process where a patient’s hair is transplanted into naturally occurring groups of 1 to 4 hairs, called follicular units.

The result is a hair transplant solution that provides some of the best results for a full, thick head of natural-looking hair. Patients with premature baldness often report feeling much younger and more like themselves than ever before. The positive attitudes of the patients from Miami after transplantation solutions almost always lead to increased optimism in their professional and private lives.

History of FUE Hair Restoration

FUE was first described in the 1980s  in Japan, where a small 1-mm needle was introduced for extracting follicular units. Previously, procedures including removing a strip of scalp and transplanting this strip into a balding section. However, our methods today are safer, more effective, and produce better results than ever before.

Unlike solutions for hair loss in the past, follicular unit extraction generally has a quicker patient recovery time and significantly lower postoperative discomfort. Additionally, the risk of long-term nerve damage, leading to chronic numbness and/or pain in the donor area is significantly reduced with FUE.

Causes of Hair Loss

If you have ever wondered why you are losing your hair, you are not alone. Hair loss in both men and women can be caused by a variety of factors. These factors may include:

  • Family history (heredity)
  • Hormonal changes and medical conditions
  • Medications and supplements
  • Chronic Stress
  • Certain hairstyles and treatments

Additional Benefits of Hair Transplantation Treatments

Hair transplantation may someday be replaced with gene therapies and stem cell therapies in the future. However, the most effective method for treating irreversible hair losses is currently hair transplantation. Hair transplantation has many positive aesthetic effects compared to other treatments for hair loss.

Among these, one of the most important is the marked improvement of forehead wrinkles in the patients undergoing hair transplantation. Hair transplantation produces the effect of Botox on the forehead.

Patients with migraines undergoing hair transplantation often find that migraine attacks decrease markedly and the patients may be able to discontinue medications. Many unknown useful effects of hair transplantation are yet to be discovered.
