What is a FUT Hair Transplant?
FUT more to know as the strip method, the doctor will excise a strip of skin with hair from the donor area normally the back of the head since the hair found there is resistant to balding. It is then cut into small grafts of hair-bearing skin called follicular units using a stereo-microscope. These units are carefully placed directly into the areas that have lost their hair or where the hair is significantly reduced hence giving a permanent hair replacement solution that is natural.
Aim of Treatment:
FUT hair transplant treatment is intended to reconstruct the natural hairline and improve the thickness of the affected zones on the head. As a surgical process that involves moving healthy hair follicles from the donor area to the bald locations, the treatment is long-lasting and has the potential to bring about a positive change in the shape of the patient’s head besides improving their self-esteem.

The FUT Procedure: Step-by-Step:
Initial Consultation:
The process starts with a consultation with a proper hair transplant surgeon. In this session, the surgeon is going to look at the pattern of hair loss, the history of the patient, and the possibility of FUT surgery.
Preparation and Anesthesia:
When the surgery is scheduled the patient’s scalp is shaved and local anaesthesia is given so that the patient will not feel any pain or discomfort during the surgery. The donor area is usually the backside of the head, this is because hair here is thick, straight and permanent.
Harvesting the Donor Strip:
Some measures of skin are shaved from the area called the donor area. It is therefore determined by the number of grafts that have been deemed necessary for a particular patient’s treatment. It is then stitched closed resulting in only a linear scar that is well hidden by hair in the area.
Dissecting the Follicular Units:
The donor strip is dissected into individual follicular units under a high-powered microscope. This meticulous process ensures that each graft is preserved with the highest integrity.
Creating Recipient Sites:
The surgeon creates tiny incisions in the balding or thinning areas of the scalp, determining the direction, angle, and density of the implanted hair to achieve the most natural results.
Implanting the Grafts:
Finally, the individual follicular units are placed or grafted in the designated recipient area/s. The actual implantation of the hair is the most delicate stage of this process, which says a lot about the experience of the staff.
Recovery Period:
The recovery period of a FUT Hair Transplant in Islamabad may take a few days and generally, involves less amount of movement. Some patients can complain of some moderate swelling, some discomfort and tightness in the scalp but these effects are controlled with some prescribed medicines. In the donor area, sutures are typically removed at the end of the second week, that is 10-14 days after FUE surgery. The majority of the patients can resume work within a week with strict advice given against vigorous activities for at least 2 weeks.
