How is FUT different from FUE?FUT removes a strip of scalp to harvest grafts, while FUE extracts follicles individually. FUT is ideal for maximum coverage, while FUE is best for minimal scarring and faster healing.
-
Will FUT leave a scar?Yes, FUT leaves a thin linear scar in the donor area. However, it is easily concealed by surrounding hair and not visible unless the head is shaved.
-
How long does recovery take?Most patients resume normal activities within 7–10 days. The donor area takes longer to fully heal than FUE, but results are permanent.
-
Who is the best candidate for FUT?FUT is recommended for patients with advanced hair loss, those requiring maximum coverage, or individuals who prefer fewer transplant sessions.
-
When will I see results?New growth typically begins at 3–4 months, with full results visible between 9–12 months.
-
How is the WAW DUO different from traditional FUE tools?The WAW DUO uses an oscillating punch that extracts follicles with less damage, improving survival rates and minimizing scarring compared to older methods.
-
Will I have visible scars after a WAW DUO FUE procedure?No. The tool creates extremely small incisions that heal quickly and leave no linear scars, making it nearly impossible to detect.
-
Is the WAW DUO FUE procedure painful?The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, and most patients report little to no pain during or after treatment.
-
How long is the recovery period?Most patients return to work and daily activities within a few days, thanks to the minimally invasive design of the WAW DUO system.
-
Is the WAW DUO FUE right for me?The WAW DUO is suitable for men and women with thinning hair, receding hairlines, or advanced hair loss who want natural, long-lasting results without extensive downtime.
At Ambroise Hair Institute, we specialize in Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT), also known as the strip method, which remains one of the most effective solutions for patients with advanced hair loss. While newer methods like FUE are popular, FUT continues to be the preferred option for those who require maximum density and coverage in a single session. With years of experience and thousands of successful procedures, our team, led by Dr. Ritchie Ambroise, combines medical expertise with artistry to deliver natural, permanent results.
What is a FUT Hair Transplant?
A FUT hair transplant involves carefully removing a thin strip of scalp from the donor area (typically the back of the head). From this strip, individual follicular units, tiny groups of 1–4 hairs, are microscopically dissected and transplanted into thinning or bald areas. Unlike FUE, where follicles are extracted one by one, FUT allows for a higher number of grafts to be transplanted in a single session, making it ideal for patients with more significant hair loss who want noticeable results quickly.
Benefits of FUT Hair Transplants
Patients who undergo FUT at Ambroise Hair Institute experience:
-
High-density results in fewer sessions
-
Strong graft survival rates due to microscopic dissection
-
Cost savings compared to multiple FUE sessions
-
Effective for advanced hair loss and receding hairlines
-
Long-lasting, natural-looking results that blend seamlessly
Why Choose FUT?
FUT remains one of the most reliable and cost-effective hair restoration procedures on the market. Patients choose FUT because it provides:
-
Maximum graft yield – More hair can be transplanted in one session compared to FUE
-
Permanent, natural results – Strong graft survival and long-term density
-
Cost-effectiveness – Often more affordable than multiple FUE sessions for advanced cases
-
Efficient for large areas – Best option for patients with extensive hair loss or those who require substantial coverage
While FUT does leave a fine linear scar, it is typically covered by surrounding hair and easily hidden.
