Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT)

Achieve Maximum Hair Restoration in Davenport and Thornhill

When hair loss affects your confidence, sometimes the only thing left to do is find the right clinic with the right solutions. Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) is a highly effective hair restoration technique. While it’s not suitable for everyone, it is designed for patients seeking to maximize their results in a single session. At our private hair transplant clinic in Toronto, board-certified surgeons Dr. Mark Korman and Dr. Philip Solomon specialize in FUT. They can determine if this hair transplant method will achieve the desired results.

What Is FUT Hair Transplant for Hair Restoration?

FUT is sometimes called the “strip method.” It involves removing a thin strip of hair-bearing scalp from the donor area. Most patients use a donor site from the back of the head. Using a microscope, the donor strip is dissected into individual follicular units. These become the follicles that are transplanted into your thinning hair loss areas. FUT is especially beneficial for patients with significant hair loss because it allows for the extraction of a large number of grafts in a single procedure.

The procedure requires a linear incision and advanced suturing techniques that minimize scarring. Despite this, the donor area heals with an inconspicuous scar line that longer hairstyles can easily hide.

What are the Benefits of FUT Hair Transplant

• Higher Graft Yield: Harvests more follicles in one session, ideal for extensive hair loss.
• Natural Results: Transplants mimic natural hair growth for seamless results.
• Cost-Effective: More grafts per session, reducing costs for extensive coverage.
• Long-Lasting: Transplanted hair is resistant to future loss with proper care.
• Efficient Process: Achieves high graft numbers faster, minimizing procedures.
