Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) is a widely used surgical hair transplant technique in which individual follicular units are carefully extracted from a donor area and implanted into areas of thinning or hair loss. Unlike strip-based methods, FUE does not require linear incisions, making it suitable for patients seeking a minimally invasive approach.
FUE at Esmée is performed as a medically planned procedure, guided by donor preservation principles, long-term hair strategy, and realistic outcome planning. Each treatment is customised following detailed assessment to ensure suitability, safety, and sustainable results.
Hair loss pattern, donor density, scalp laxity, and long-term progression are assessed. Hairline and density are planned conservatively.
The donor area is trimmed and prepared under sterile conditions.
Individual follicular units are extracted using specialised micro-instruments to minimise tissue trauma.
Extracted follicles are implanted into recipient areas following planned angles, direction, and density.
Scalp condition and graft placement are reviewed before discharge.
