Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT)

FUT hair transplant or strip FUT involves removing a thin strip of scalp from the donor area, typically the back of the head. This strip is then dissected under a microscope into individual follicular units, which are transplanted into the thinning or balding areas.

Benefits of FUT Hair Transplant

  • Large graft harvesting. This method allows for the transplantation of a larger number of grafts in a single session.
  • No need to shave the entire donor area. Only a small strip of hair is removed, and the surrounding hair covers the donor site.
  • Minimal visibility of scarring. The trichophytic closure technique used ensures that the resulting scar is virtually undetectable, with hair growing through it.

While FUT provides extensive coverage for advanced baldness, it does leave a linear scar, which may be noticeable if you wear your hair very short. However, this is usually very thin and can be easily concealed by surrounding hair.

Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE)

FUE involves harvesting individual follicular units directly from the donor area using specialized tools. At Miami Hair Institute, our surgeons employ several variations of FUE hair transplant. 

Manual FUE

This method uses manual devices like Ugraft Zeus and Trivellini to extract follicles without the need for a robot. Manual FUE requires complete shaving of the donor area but is highly effective for those seeking a natural appearance with minimal scarring.

ARTAS® FUE

Miami Hair Institute is a global leader in ARTAS® robotic hair restoration, with over 3,000 procedures performed. ARTAS® uses advanced robotics to precisely harvest hair follicles with minimal invasiveness. This means you get a highly accurate procedure with a smoother experience and shorter downtime.

The ARTAS® system offers many benefits, including avoiding the linear scarring common with traditional methods, so you can keep your hair short without any visible marks. Plus, the advanced multi-camera vision ensures high-quality grafts and a quicker recovery with less discomfort.

Hybrid FUE™ (ARTAS + Manual FUE)

This advanced technique combines robotic precision with manual artistry. The ARTAS robot helps with the precise extraction of follicles, while manual FUE techniques refine and blend the donor area, making it less noticeable. Hybrid FUE™ is ideal for patients with previous strip scars and those who prefer to wear very short hairstyles.

No-Shave FUE

For patients who wish to avoid shaving their donor area, No-Shave FUE provides a discreet option. Using specialized tools, individual follicles are extracted without shaving, allowing you to maintain their normal hairstyle immediately after the procedure.

Benefits of FUE Hair Transplant

  • No linear scar. The extraction method leaves tiny dot scars, which are almost unnoticeable and allow for shorter hairstyles.
  • Quick recovery. Patients typically experience less discomfort and a faster recovery time compared to FUT.
  • Discreet options. Techniques like No-Shave FUE offer a high level of discretion and minimal disruption to daily life.

Follicular Unit Placement Artistry 

Hair transplantation is both a science and an art. To produce natural-looking results, our surgeons at Miami Hair Institute use their patented MOSAIC® technology

Traditional hair restoration methods often use set zones for placing hair follicles, which can sometimes result in less natural-looking outcomes. MOSAIC® changes the game by analyzing your natural hair follicle pattern and replicating it in the transplanted area.

MOSAIC® uses detailed images of your existing scalp to understand the natural distribution of hair follicles. It then applies this pattern to the recipient area, ensuring that the new hair looks as natural as your own growth. This approach delivers the most realistic and seamless results.

Advanced Surgical Enhancements

At Miami Hair Institute, we’ve integrated advanced enhancements to ensure the highest quality results and patient comfort.

Hypothermosol for Improved Follicle Survival

Our surgeons use Hypothermosol, a cutting-edge solution specifically designed to preserve cells. Unlike traditional saline, Hypothermosol mimics the natural environment of the follicles, reducing stress and injury during the out-of-body period. When paired with ATP, this method enhances follicle survival and encourages faster growth.

Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP)

We also use PRP therapy to boost hair transplant results. PRP, made from the patient’s own blood, concentrates growth and healing factors that help follicles survive, reduce post-op redness, and enhance overall hair growth. It’s especially useful for those who’ve had previous transplants or need extra support in their hair restoration journey.

Exparel for Pain Management

To ensure a comfortable recovery, we use Exparel for pain management. This long-lasting local anesthetic provides up to 48 hours of relief, thanks to its non-invasive ultrasound delivery. Exparel helps minimize post-operative discomfort, making your recovery smoother and more comfortable.

Comprehensive Hair Loss Evaluation

At Miami Hair Institute, we go beyond just surgical solutions by offering a thorough approach to diagnosing and treating hair loss. Our comprehensive evaluation process includes detailed medical histories, advanced diagnostic tools, and blood tests to uncover the root causes of hair loss.

Our diagnostic tools include:

  • Microscopic Exam: Checks for abnormalities in hair shafts and bulbs.
  • Hair Mass Measurement: Detects subtle changes in hair density.
  • Scalp Dermoscopy: Visualizes miniaturization and pattern loss.
  • Scalp Biopsy: Offers crucial insights into unexplained hair loss.

With these tools, we can diagnose various hair loss conditions, such as hereditary pattern loss, alopecia areata, and scarring alopecia, and create personalized treatment plans for each patient.
