Understanding the treatment
What Is
FUT Hair
Transplant?
FUT, or follicular unit transplantation, uses a narrow strip of hair-bearing scalp taken from a suitable donor area, usually at the back of the head. The incision is closed, and the strip is carefully divided into small follicular-unit grafts for placement in thinning areas.
The donor site heals with a linear scar, whose visibility depends on healing and hairstyle. FUT can be useful when planning coverage and managing a limited donor supply, but suitability depends on scalp flexibility, hair quality, and future hair loss. It moves existing follicles rather than creating new ones.
Is it right for you?
Start with
your concern
—not a
treatment
package.
Your consultation explores what is bothering you, whether this treatment fits your needs, and when another option may be more appropriate.
THIS MAY BE WORTH EXPLORING IF
FUT may be worth discussing if:
You want to restore an established area of hair loss and have a suitable donor zone.
You usually wear enough length at the back to help cover a linear scar.
You want to compare donor-management options before choosing a transplant method.
You would prefer to avoid extensive shaving, where your treatment plan allows.
You can follow incision-care instructions and pause strenuous activity while healing.
What may improve
Benefits connected
to your goals.
Planned use of donor hair.
FUT may support a long-term graft strategy in appropriately selected patients.
Individual follicular-unit placement.
Small grafts allow the recipient design to follow the intended pattern of natural hair growth.
Limited donor trimming.
Some patients can retain more surrounding hair length during the procedure.
Lasting styling possibilities.
Successfully established donor follicles can produce hair you cut and style normally.

Frequently asked questions
Each method has advantages and trade-offs. FUT may suit your donor characteristics and long-term graft plan, while FUE may better match other priorities; ask your surgeon to explain the recommendation using your examination findings.
A linear scar remains at the donor site. Longer surrounding hair may conceal it, but close cropping, scar widening, or future thinning can make it visible; no closure method can promise an invisible scar.
Usually, only the strip area needs trimming for donor harvesting. Recipient-area preparation depends on the surgical plan, so confirm the exact amount of trimming before your procedure.
Local anaesthetic is used during surgery. Donor tightness or soreness afterwards can be more noticeable than with FUE for some patients, but experiences vary; the surgeon will discuss pain relief and wound care.
Exercise that raises strain or stretches the healing incision needs to wait. Your surgeon will give an individual schedule, often restricting strenuous exercise during the first month; feeling comfortable does not mean the wound is ready for every activity.
