subject: Hair Restoration Surgery May Be An Option For You [print this page] Hair restoration surgery using the follicle extraction method, which is also called the FUE method, is not for everyone. As with the strip method, an area at the back of the head is removed, and it is then dispersed in the front. In order for these methods to work, an individual must have enough hair at the back of the head.
The follicle extraction method is an excellent way to have a transplant. It is not very invasive at all, and it does not really have much of a recovery time. The process uses an instrument that takes out the individual follicles and puts them where they are needed on the head. This type of hair restoration surgery differs from the strip method in that the strip method removes a portion of the scalp, leaving an incision in the back. It is a far more invasive surgery.
If you are interested in a transplant, you would be wise to look up a specialist who is near you and deals in this area. Some things to look for in a specialist include the use of the follicle extraction method, affordable prices, and a good level of customer service at the office and with the specialist.
Most hair restoration surgery specialists likely offer the strip method for transplanting. The reason they used this over the follicle method is because the follicle extraction method was at one point more time consuming and expensive. More recently it has been revamped through new technology, and it now takes less time. Because it takes less time, it is likely less expensive. It being less invasive also makes it a good option.
Affordability is important. If you do some price comparisons before settling on a clinic it will help you to get the best service at the best price. You should be able to check reviews to make sure the one you choose does provide good work.
Customer service is always important. The surgeon should show it by being a good listener and answering any questions that you might have. The office staff should be cordial on the phone and in person. They should be patient even if you ask foolish questions because you are the customer.
Do not settle for a clinic that does not measure up. It is likely that if you shop around you will find one that does measure up to what you want in a specialist that does hair restoration surgery.
