A quick look at what to expect — from procedure time to visible results.
Strip Technique Hair Transplant Surgery, also known as Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT), is a widely used and highly effective hair restoration method for treating moderate to advanced hair loss. In this procedure, a thin strip of scalp is carefully removed from the donor area, typically the back or sides of the head, where hair is genetically resistant to balding.
Once the strip is removed, it is meticulously dissected under high magnification into individual follicular unit grafts, each containing 1–4 hair follicles. These grafts are then strategically implanted into the balding or thinning areas to recreate a natural hairline and restore density.
One of the key advantages of the strip technique is that it allows surgeons to harvest a large number of grafts in a single session, making it highly suitable for patients with extensive hair loss. It is often preferred when maximum coverage is required in fewer sittings.
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, ensuring patient comfort throughout the surgery. After implantation, the transplanted hair follicles enter a natural growth cycle, and visible results typically begin within a few months, with full growth achieved over 9–12 months.
