Differences between the FUS and FUE technique

Differences between FUS and FUE technique: yesterday and today in hair transplant techniques

The hair transplant sector has evolved incredibly over the last few decades. The evolution is so great that there are truly remarkable cases if we compare the before with the after. There are two follicular unit extraction procedures that are the most frequently used when carrying out a hair transplant operation. We are talking about the FUSS and FUE techniques.

These acronyms stand for the following: FUSS technique ''Follicular Unit Strip Surgery'' or also known as the ''Strip Technique'' and the FUE technique ''Follicular Unit Extraction'' or ''Follicular Unit Extraction''.

What are these two techniques and what are the differences between them?

When a hair transplant session is performed with the FUSS technique, we extract the hairs from the donor area with a very thin strip of skin with hair between 12 and 20 cm long and 1 cm wide, which we obtain from the back or side of the head and which we suture afterwards.

If, on the other hand, we decide to carry out a hair transplant session using the FUE technique, we are talking about a surgical variant of the follicular micro-transplant technique. This technique is highly regarded as it is the most advanced and best hair transplant technique available today. In the FUE technique we proceed to extract the follicles individually from the area at the back of the head called the donor area without the need for stitches and what is more important, without any trace of scars or marks.

As far as the results are concerned, both techniques are good and professional to solve the problem of alopecia. Even so, at Global Health we strongly recommend hair transplantation with the FUE individual follicle extraction technique as it has advantages and advances that FUSS does not, and here are three examples of great importance:

- When a hair transplant session is performed with the FUE technique, there is little discomfort after the operation as no surgical cut is made, so the patient will not feel any tightness in the nape of the neck.

- There will be no stitches at the nape of the neck, therefore no scars, whereas in the FUSS procedure there will be.

• Non-invasive and non-aggressive intervention.
