FUE unshaven

FUE long hair means that the donor area is not shaved, grafts are extracted with a special punch (long hair, or cut at 1cm), and then implanted in the balding area.

Usually 500 to 1000 - 1200 grafts in one session (up to 3000 grafts over 2 days, as per example of Dr Koray Erdogan ASMED).

ADVANTAGE : immediate visible result of transplantation, hides the healing crusts (micro incisions in the recipient area), and during the 3rd week, the usual fall of transplanted hair (before regrowth) can be limited by use of Minoxidil 2%.

DISADVANTAGE : few clinics offer FUE long hair, as it is time consuming, and requires special skills and tools.
