FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) hair transplantation is a procedure where the surgeon takes the hair follicles from your own skin, usually from the backside where you have hair in your head, and moves that hair into the bald area to fill it.
1. At first, your scalp is numbed with anesthesia using a small needle.
2. After that, the surgeon uses a needle in your scalp to make tiny holes to execute the hair transplantation. They fill the holes in your head by transplanting hair into them.
3. After the procedure is completed, your scalp will be covered with a bandage, which needs care, and after 3 days, you need to visit the clinic to wash your hair as recommended by the doctor. If you don’t wash your hair after hair transplantation, your scalp will build up bacteria and oil, which might lead to scabbing.
