In almost all the clinics where they graft hair, they resort to two restoration techniques which are the FUSS and the FUE. These are considered the best hair transplant techniques in Mexico. Both have their advantages and after your procedure you will begin to notice a small difference, until you recover all the hair that you have lost.
At Cancun Hair Restoration, we know both procedures perfectly and that is why we will tell you about each of them. In addition, we will give you some points that you should take into consideration when you decide to submit to one of them.
The Best Hair Transplant Technique
Before explaining what these two great hair transplant techniques consist of, we will tell you that, in both, an expert plastic surgeon will be in charge of performing the operation. In Cancun Hair Restoration, we have all the safety measures in health and care of our patients, so you will be safe at all times.
FUE Hair Transplant
The FUE technique of hair transplantation is one of the most used today to recover hair in Mexico. The long-term results are the best because the follicular units are transplanted one by one. We take these from some part of your head from where it is more suitable to remove them to put them where you must need it.
To determine exactly where the doctors will take the follicular units from, they will perform a study on your hindhead to determine which part will be better to take them. The place chosen must have uniformity in the appearance of the hair and its follicular units must be in good health.
With the analysis completed, the surgeon will begin to extract every one of the hair follicles with small incisions. To make this completely painless for you, we use local anesthesia, so you will not feel anything during the operation. This is a job that only an expert doctor can do, because if the cuts are not made in the best way, the follicular units can be damaged.
What is good about the FUE technique of hair grafting?
First of all, the previously described procedure is non-invasive and will not leave a single scar on your scalp. For this reason and its incredible long-term results, it is considered the best hair transplant method in Mexico.
This means that, after the intervention, you will be able to carry out your normal activities without problems and, in no more than 15 days, you will no longer feel the irritation of the surgery, neither where the follicles were removed, nor where they were grafted.
Although generally, hair is taken from the nape area, the previous studies that we carry out allow us to determine if there is a better place to take the hair follicles. Therefore, it is not only a good option for transplanting hair from the head, but also from other parts of the body such as the chest or shoulders.
If one of your concerns is how permanent this procedure is, we can tell you that your hair will no longer fall out. Genetically, that transplanted hair will not stop growing, regardless of whether it is in a new area of your head. It is a surgery that men and women can go under procedure without problems.
FUT Hair Transplant
In the FUT transplant technique, also known as FUSS or strip, the doctor removes an entire band of skin from the back of the head. Once this strip is removed, the hair follicles are selected to be grafted one by one in the area where you have significant hair loss.
Approximately, the strip of hair that is removed from the nape of the patient is 1.00 centimeters wide by 20.00 centimeters long. This leaves a very unremarkable scar on this part of the head that will be hidden by the remaining hair.
Unlike the FUE technique, with FUT, the amount of hair that we can transplant will depend on how much the donor has on the nape of the neck. However, enough can be achieved even if the patient does not have a very high hair density.
To perform this procedure, at Cancun Hair Restoration, we apply a local anesthetic to the patient with a little sedation. A surgery like this takes between 8 and 12 hours, depending on the number of follicles to be transplanted. To keep the hair follicles as cared for as possible, we will keep them hydrated and kept cold.
A few days after the operation, some of your hair will fall out; this is completely normal as they are adjusting to the new area. However, these will grow back in about three months.
You will notice the change six months after the operation when most of the hair has come out. You will see the final result of the operation 10 or 12 months after surgery, when your hair has grown and fully adapted.
What is good about the FUT technique of hair grafting?
The main reason why this is one of the best hair transplant techniques in Mexico is that with it you can graft a greater number of hair follicles and you will not need to shave. If you combine this technique with the FUE, you will get a surprising result.
Also, a greater number of hair follicles can be obtained in excellent condition, since there will be between 2,000 or 3,000 in the strip. Usually, the doctor will choose those of better quality that have between 2 or 4 hairs per follicle. In addition, their removal is easier and safer, and they run less risk of being damaged during surgery.
The only problem with this is that it will leave a small scar in the nape area; however, it will not be visible. As for the grafted hair, it will not be very noticeable either and in a few days, it will adapt to your new area of the scalp.
It is important that, once you have undergone any of the two methods of hair transplantation, you follow all the postoperative care indicated by the doctor to the letter. In this way, your recovery will be faster, and the results of the intervention will be more noticeable and permanent in the long term.
Dare to change and improve your appearance with either of these two hair grafting methods. Although these are somewhat long operations, they are very simple to perform and, from the hand of knowledgeable surgeons, everything will go perfectly, and you will see the best results in a very short time.If you are looking for the clinic with the best hair transplant in Mexico, Cancun Hair Restoration is where you should go.
