What is FUE Hair Transplant?
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) is a modern hair transplant technique in which individual hair follicles are extracted one by one from a donor area—typically the back or sides of the scalp—and transplanted into thinning or balding areas. Unlike older strip methods (FUT), FUE does not involve removing a strip of skin.
