Follicular unit extraction (FUE) is a surgical hair-restoration procedure that is capable of providing long-lasting and natural-looking results. At Blackhawk Hair Restoration, our experts can restore the appearance of your hair with FUE in Danville

What Is FUE?

Follicular unit extraction is an advanced surgical procedure that is able to restore the appearance of hair that is thinning or balding. The procedure involves harvesting healthy living follicular units of hair from an area of the scalp with an abundance of hair. These follicular units contain anywhere from one to four hairs.

The harvested follicular units are then transplanted into the area of the scalp where the hair is thinning and sparse. Carefully implanting individual units of hair provides results that are much more even and natural in appearance.

FUE hair restoration is a highly personalized surgical procedure that takes a large amount of skill and time to perform properly. Our experts have years of experience and the skill needed to give you the hair-regrowth results you deserve.

The Benefits of FUE

FUE hair transplantation offers a number of benefits compared to other hair-restoration procedures like FUT. With FUE, there is no long strip of tissue removed from the scalp. Instead, individual units of hair are punched out, which reduces the amount of damage caused to the surrounding scalp and does not leave a noticeable linear scar across the scalp.

The ability to precisely implant individual units of hair allows for better aesthetic results that look much more natural and consistent. FUE hair transplantation also allows patients to cut their hair short afterwards, since there is no large visible scar on the scalp that might be left uncovered. Additionally, the marks left from the FUE procedure are very difficult to detect.

FUE Hair Restoration Recovery and Results

Recovery from FUE hair transplantation is generally shorter compared to other hair-restoration procedures. Most patients will need around three days to a week of recovery before they feel ready to return to work. Our team will provide you with a comprehensive list of post-operative instructions that will help you throughout your hair-restoration recovery.

It will take some time to see the full results of your FUE hair restoration. New hair growth will begin after four months or so and will continue to grow. It can take around one year to see the full results of your FUE procedure, so patience is vital.

Follicular Unit Extraction FAQs

How long does an FUE hair transplant procedure typically take?
The duration of your procedure will depend on how much hair is being extracted and transplanted. Most FUE hair transplant procedures take between four to eight hours.
Will I be awake during my procedure?
Yes, patients remain awake during an FUE hair transplant procedure. The area being treated is numbed with local anesthesia to prevent discomfort throughout the procedure. Patients can relax, listen to music, or watch TV as the surgery is performed.
When will I see results from an FUE hair transplant?
You can expect to see new hair growth about four months post-procedure. It may take up to a year to see the final results of your FUE hair transplant procedure.
Will I need more than one FUE hair transplant procedure?
Most patients are satisfied with the results of their first FUE hair transplant procedure. In some cases, patients opt for a second procedure to enhance their initial results.

You will be given personalized treatment recommendations during your consultation based on your hair restoration goals, so you know what to expect regarding the number of procedures you will need.
