Follicular Unit Extraction or FUE uses a tiny instrument which is one millimeter in diameter or even less to remove follicular units from the donor area that will be transplanted to the recipient area. This instrument is used to make tiny circular incisions around the follicular unit, so it will be easily extracted by the use of a tweezer-like instrument. The donor area is the part of the scalp that is usually abundant with hair. The donor area is usually at the back and the sides of the head. The recipient site on the other hand is the area in the scalp that needs to be restored, where hair loss and balding usually occur. After the follicular hair grafts are extracted from the donor site, physicians will then isolate these grafts to make sure it is in optimal condition before it gets transplanted to the recipient site. FUE hair transplant technique is commonly done by arranging the extracted follicular units into groups of one to four hairs per hair follicle to make the transplanted hair look more natural.

No second session is allowed within a year for this type of procedure for the scalp will be swollen and hair follicles transplanted will be sensitive plus possibility of a hair shock should be carefully monitored. A hair shock is when hair starts to shed which is normal because later on a new set of healthy hair will grow.

Both the patient and the doctor can fully see the whole result s during this time line and if by any chance the patient wants to add more to the recipient area, then the his hair surgeon would probably suggest on a second session. But always remember, that it is not all the time that a second session for hair transplantation procedure is needed, it will always depend on the outcome of the first hair transplant that the patient had.
