FUE Implants are the most sought after in our hair restoration clinic since they are the most economical in price and offer excellent results. The experts who collaborate in Cancun Hair Restoration know this procedure perfectly, since they have the appropriate studies, extensive experience and adequate facilities.
As experts in the field of hair restoration, we decided to make this blog to give you important details regarding the FUE implant placement procedure, as well as the costs of the surgery and the factors that define it. All this must be taken into consideration if you have decided to undergo treatment with us or at any other clinic.
In the first instance, and since we know that it is one of the most important issues about FUE implants, we will talk about its cost and the factors that make it change. Then we will explain a little about the procedure and how we carry it out at CHR; and, finally, you will know how this differs from other treatments.
FUE Hair Transplant cost
The first and most important thing to know regarding the cost of FUE hair transplant is that there is no fixed figure for everyone for this procedure. Every patient is different and only the doctor can say how much you will have to pay for your procedure. This is because there are different factors that must be taken into consideration to carry it out.
In the first instance, what can define an approximate cost of FUE implants is the number of follicles that need to be extracted to obtain the best possible results. For this reason, the cases in which the hair loss is more advanced, the operation is more expensive than in those in which there is not much hair loss.
In order to define this in the best possible way, you have to go to our clinic so that the surgeon can define how many follicles will be necessary. Generally, between 2,500 and 3,000 FUE implants are required to obtain favorable results after the operation. However, there may be cases where fewer or more of these are needed.
When the patient requires more FUE implants, on certain occasions more than one session is necessary, which would increase the cost. In addition to these costs, they include the charges of the plastic surgeon, the use of medicines and various materials, as well as what you will have to spend during post-operative care, even if it is not much of the latter.
You will know all this information exactly during your first appointment at our clinic, when the plastic surgeon analyzes your case with precision. If you require more precise information regarding this topic, you can send us a message from our contact section and as soon as we see it we will answer all the questions you still have about it.
FUE Implants process
The acronym FUE of FUE implants means follicular unit extraction, which means that the procedure consists of the extraction one by one of the hair follicles. This with the intention of not leaving visible marks, as occurs in other procedures that require a greater number of hair follicles.
This hair restoration method is the most modern currently available and has only been perfected with the use of devices such as the ARTAS robot that speed up the process. Obtaining FUE implants is the best and their placement allows you to obtain a completely natural appearance, as long as you go to an expert plastic surgeon.
During this procedure, which can last up to 12 hours, the plastic surgeon will be in charge of extracting each one of the hair follicles and keeping them in conservation so that they can withstand the entire process. Once you have obtained enough to solve your baldness problem, you will begin to place the FUE implants in the donor area.
In order to extract them, you have to make small cuts to facilitate their extraction without damaging the root and thus reposition it in the donor area. The placement of FUE implants is a relatively simple and minimally invasive process; but, due to the number of follicles that have to be extracted to obtain the best results, the operation can last up to 12 hours.
FUE Implants vs other hair Restoration procedures
The two most well-known and currently used hair restoration procedures are FUE and FUT hair transplantation. As we already mentioned, FUE implants are obtained one by one so as not to leave significant visible marks; instead, FUTs are taken from a 20cm strip of hair that will be taken from the nape of your head.
In some cases, FUT hair transplantation is better, especially those that require a larger number of hair follicles, as well as for budget reasons. When you arrive at our clinic for your first review, the plastic surgeon will tell you what the best procedure will be depending on your case of hair loss.
Are FUE Implants worth it?
Yes, definitely yes. If you have had a baldness problem for a long time, the only permanent solution you will find is FUE implants. The change you will have once you start to see the final results; although they are not seen immediately after the operation. Once they have adapted you will notice the real change.
