GOING BALD? HAIR LOSS? THINNING?NO MORE! - HAIR RESTORATION FROM FUECLINICS Hair transplantation involves relocating (transplanting) bald resistant hair follicles from the back and sides of the head (the donor areas) to a person’s bald or thinning areas. The transplanted hair follicles will typically grow hair for a lifetime because they are genetically resistant to going bald. In recent years hair transplantation techniques have evolved from using large plugs and mini grafts to exclusively using large numbers of small grafts that contain from between 1 to 4 hairs.

Since hair naturally grows in follicles that contain groupings of 1 to 4 hairs, today’s most advanced techniques transplant these naturally occurring 1 – 4 hair “follicular units” in their natural groupings. Thus modern hair transplantation can achieve a natural appearance by mimicking nature hair for hair. This recent hair transplant procedure is called “Follicular Unit Extraction or FUE.” Given the improved naturalness of hair transplantation surgery hair loss sufferers are increasingly selecting this hair loss treatment.

The average growth rate of healthy hair follicles on the scalp is 0.4 mm per day.

Strip Harvesting........leaves linear scars.

Yes this looks extreme, it is. Not every case using strip surgery harvesting ends with a scar like the one shown here. But unfortunately too many do. This patent treated by a clinic in Bromsgrove tells people he’s been in a car accident, his war wounds so to speak.

FUE harvesting is totally different. By only using a micro FUE harvesting tool, like a needle to remove individual follicles one at a time, you do not have any linear scars. In fact with normal hair length you would see nothing at all. Even with a very short hair cut you cannot see any evidence of surgery.

There are examples of what your donor area looks like after seven days later in this book.

FUE Surgery uses no scalpels or stitches www.FUEClinics.com

About Hair Growth PhasesHair grows in cycles of various phases:Anagen is the growth phase; catagen is the involut-ing or regressing phase; and telogen, the resting or quiescent phase.

Each phase has several morphologically and histo-logically distinguishable sub-phases.

Prior to the start of cycling is a phase of follicular morphogenesis (formation of the follicle). There is also a shedding phase, or exogen, that is indepen-dent of anagen and telogen in which one of several hairs that might arise from a single follicle exits.

Normally up to 90% of the hair follicles are in ana-gen phase while, 10–14% are in telogen and 1–2% in catagen. The cycle’s length varies on different parts of the body. For eyebrows, the cycle is com-pleted in around 4 months, while it takes the scalp 3–4 years to finish. This is the reason eyebrow hairs have a fixed length, while hairs on the head seem to have no length limit.

Growth cycles are controlled by a chemical signal like epidermal growth factor.

Anagen PhaseAnagen is the active growth phase of hair follicles. The cells in the root of the hair are dividing rapidly, adding to the hair shaft. During this phase the hair grows about 1 cm every 28 days. Scalp hair stays in this active phase of growth for 2-6 years.

Catagen PhaseThe catagen phase is a short transition stage that occurs at the end of the anagen phase. It signals the end of the active growth of a hair. This phase lasts for about 2-3 weeks while a club hair is formed.

Telogen Phase The telogen phase is the resting phase of the hair follicle. At any given time, 10%-15% of all hairs are in the telogen phase. This phase lasts for about 100 days for hairs on the scalp and much longer for hairs on the eyebrow, eyelash, arm and leg. During this phase the hair follicle is complete-ly at rest and the club hair is completely formed. Pulling out a hair in this phase will reveal a solid, hard, dry, white material at the root.

About 25-100 telogen hairs are shed normally each day.

You don’t have to shave your head!

Yes it is possible to have FUE hair transplants without the need to shave the entire head. This patient had long enough hair to cover the donor site with no signs of surgery. Within the week his own hair had started to grow back in the donor site.
