FUT vs. FUE: Choosing the Best Hair Restoration Technique

FUT vs. FUE: Choosing the Best Hair Restoration Technique

Understanding the differences is the most important part when deciding between Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) and Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE).

At their Toronto clinic, Dr. Mark Korman and Dr. Phill Solomon are experts who guide and help you through this decision.

FUT vs. FUE: The Basics

Harvesting Method: FUT involves removing a strip of skin from the donor area, while FUE extracts individual follicles directly from the scalp.

Scarring: FUT leaves a linear scar, whereas FUE results in tiny, barely noticeable, dot-like scars.

Recovery Time: FUE typically offers quicker recovery, while FUT might require slightly more downtime due to the incision.

Graft Volume: FUT allows for more grafts in one session, making it ideal for extensive hair loss.

Which is Right for You?

The extent of hair loss often determines the ideal approach; patients with significant hair loss may benefit from FUT due to its ability to harvest more grafts. Lifestyle considerations also play a role, as individuals who prefer short hairstyles or want to minimize visible scarring typically lean toward FUE. Budget can also influence your decision. FUT is more cost-effective for achieving more extensive coverage in fewer sessions.

At their Toronto clinic, Dr. Korman and Dr. Solomon take the time to evaluate each patient’s hair. Their friendly, personalized approach allows them to understand their patients’ needs. After getting to know you, they will understand your goals and recommend the right technique.
