What is FUT Hair Transplantation? In Which Cases Is It Applied?

FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation) is a method used for hair transplantation. In this method, permanent hair follicles at the back of the hair are usually surgically removed from the nape of the neck. The hair follicles taken from this area are separated into hair follicles under a microscope and transplanted to balding or sparse areas. FUT is a hair transplantation method in which hair follicles are removed collectively. Therefore, it provides more effective hair transplantation to larger areas. FUT hair transplantation is generally preferred in advanced stages of hair loss and restoration of large hair areas. This method is used to achieve effective and permanent results in cases where more hair follicles are needed.
