What it is
What is FUE?
Hair naturally grows in small groups of one to four hairs, called follicular units. In follicular unit extraction, individual units are removed one at a time from a donor area — usually the back and sides of the scalp, where hair tends to be more resistant to thinning — and placed into tiny openings in the area being treated.
Because grafts are taken individually rather than as a strip of scalp, FUE does not leave a long linear scar. It does leave very small marks in the donor area, which are usually hidden by the surrounding hair.
What the procedure generally involves
- 1
Planning
Your provider examines the thinning area and the donor area, and discusses where grafts would be placed and roughly how many might be needed.
- 2
Preparation
FUE is a minimally invasive procedure performed under local anesthesia. The donor area is usually trimmed beforehand.
- 3
Extraction and placement
Follicular units are extracted one by one and carefully placed into the treatment area. Depending on the number of grafts, a session can take several hours.

Recovery and follow-up
Some redness, swelling and small scabs are common in the first days. Transplanted hairs often shed in the following weeks; any new growth develops gradually over many months and varies from person to person.
How the procedure is performed, aftercare, risks and pricing are explained in detail during your consultation. Results vary and cannot be guaranteed.
Suitability
Is FUE right for you?
FUE isn't suitable for everyone, which is why every plan starts with a consultation. Your provider will talk through factors such as:
- The pattern, extent and stability of your hair loss
- The density and quality of hair in your donor area
- The likely cause of your hair loss, and your general health and medications
- Your goals, and what is realistic for your hair and scalp
Both men and women can be evaluated. If FUE doesn't look like the right option for you, we'll tell you.

Good to know
FUE questions, answered.
Is the consultation free?
Yes. Consultations are complimentary, with no obligation to go ahead with a procedure.
Does FUE leave a scar?
FUE does not leave the long linear scar associated with strip harvesting. It does leave small marks where grafts were taken, which are usually concealed by surrounding hair. Your provider will explain what to expect for your hair type.
Can you tell me what results I'll get?
No one can guarantee a specific result. Outcomes depend on many individual factors, including your donor hair and the cause of your hair loss. At your consultation we'll discuss what's realistic for you.
How much does FUE cost?
Pricing depends on your individual plan and is confirmed during your consultation. We accept major credit cards and cash, and financing is available for qualifying clients through Cherry, subject to approval.
What is your cancellation policy?
We ask for at least 24 hours' notice to cancel or reschedule an appointment. Missed appointments or late cancellations may incur a fee.
