What is FUE Hair Transplant Surgery?

Hair loss can impact more than just your appearance—it can affect your confidence and overall well-being. At Atlantis Medical, our FUE hair transplant Melbourne procedure is designed to provide a long-lasting solution that looks and feels natural.
Follicular Unit Extraction, is a minimally invasive procedure that involves:

  • Precise follicle removal: Hair follicles are carefully extracted in their natural groupings from areas of dense growth, usually at the back or sides of the scalp.
  • Advanced micro-punch technology: Ensures precision extraction, reducing scarring and promoting faster healing compared to traditional methods.
  • Meticulous follicle placement: Once harvested, follicles are prepared and strategically transplanted into thinning or balding areas to achieve natural hair density.
  • Seamless, natural results: Each graft, containing 1 to 3 hairs, is placed to complement your facial features and blend with your existing hair pattern.

If you’re considering a hair transplant, our expert team is here to guide you through every step of the process. Book a consultation today to discover how Atlantis Medical can help you achieve the best possible outcome.

What Can FUE Hair Restoration Treat

What Can FUE Hair Restoration Treat

FUE hair transplant surgery can effectively address a variety of hair loss conditions, including:

  • Male pattern baldness (androgenic alopecia)
  • Female pattern baldness
  • Receding hairline
  • Thinning hair
  • A receding beard or mustache

Benefits of the FUE Hair Transplantation Procedure

Undergoing an FUE hair transplant offers numerous advantages, making it a preferred choice for individuals seeking effective hair restoration with minimal downtime. The key potential benefits of this advanced procedure include:

  • Minimally Invasive Procedure
    FUE hair transplantation is a minimally invasive technique that does not require scalpels or sutures. This reduces the risk of complications, promotes a more comfortable experience, and allows for a quicker return to daily activities.
  • No Linear Scarring
    Unlike traditional hair transplant methods, FUE leaves no noticeable linear scars. Instead, small, virtually undetectable puncture marks are left behind, making it an ideal choice for those who prefer to wear their hair short.
  • Faster Healing and Recovery Time
    Since FUE does not involve the removal of a strip of scalp, the healing process is significantly faster compared to other methods. Most patients can return to normal activities within a few days, with minimal post-procedure discomfort.
  • Natural-Looking Results
    FUE hair transplants provide a seamless and natural appearance, as each follicle is carefully placed to blend perfectly with the existing hair. This ensures that the results are virtually undetectable, even upon close inspection.
  • Reduced Discomfort
    The FUE procedure is performed under local anesthesia, resulting in minimal pain during and after the procedure. Patients generally experience little to no discomfort throughout the recovery process.
  • Ideal for Smaller Areas
    FUE is particularly beneficial for patients who require hair restoration in smaller, targeted areas such as the hairline, crown, beard, or eyebrows. It allows for precise placement and customisation according to individual aesthetic goals.
  • Cost-Effective Option
    At Atlantis Medical, we offer competitive pricing and flexible payment plans, making FUE hair transplantation an affordable and worthwhile investment in restoring your confidence and achieving long-lasting results.

FUE Transplant Procedure

How is the FUE Hair Transplantation
Procedure Performed?

The FUE hair transplant procedure is a minimally invasive technique that involves the precise extraction and transplantation of individual hair follicles to restore natural hair growth. This advanced method is designed to achieve seamless, long-lasting results with minimal discomfort and downtime.

01

Preparation

The procedure begins with the careful preparation of the donor and recipient areas. The donor area, usually at the back or sides of the scalp where hair is more resilient, is trimmed to allow for precise extraction. Local anesthesia is applied to both areas to ensure a comfortable experience for the patient.

02

Follicle Extraction

Using a specialised micro-punch tool, individual hair follicles are carefully loosened and extracted from the donor area.

The punch tool creates tiny circular incisions around each follicular unit, allowing for precise removal without causing significant scarring. The extracted follicles typically contain 1 to 3 hairs each and are preserved in a specialised solution to maintain their viability.

03

Follicle Preparation

Once harvested, the follicles are meticulously examined and sorted based on their size and quality. Our expert team ensures that only the healthiest and strongest follicles are selected for transplantation, maximising the likelihood of successful growth and natural-looking results.

04

Implantation into
the Recipient Area

The recipient area is carefully prepared by creating micro-incisions at the appropriate depth, angle, and density to mimic the natural growth pattern of your hair. The extracted follicles are then strategically implanted to ensure even distribution and a seamless blend with your existing hair.

05

Post-Procedure Care
and Healing

After the procedure, patients are provided with comprehensive aftercare instructions to promote proper healing and optimal hair growth. While the transplanted hairs will initially shed within 2 to 3 weeks, this is a normal part of the process, as the follicles enter a resting phase before new hair begins to grow.

06

Ongoing Care
and Results

New hair growth typically begins around 3 to 4 months post-surgery, with noticeable improvements by the 6-month mark. Full, natural-looking results are generally achieved within 12 to 18 months, providing thicker, healthier hair with long-lasting outcomes.
Aftercare

Aftercare

  • Sleep with your head elevated for the first week post-procedure to minimise swelling and protect newly transplanted grafts.
  • Follow our specialised washing protocol beginning 48 hours after surgery, using the gentle cleansing technique demonstrated by our team.
  • Avoid strenuous exercise, swimming pools, saunas, and direct sun exposure for at least two weeks to prevent complications.
  • Take prescribed medications as directed, including anti-inflammatory agents and specialised hair growth supplements to optimise results.
  • Refrain from touching, scratching or wearing hats that may disturb the grafts during the crucial first 7-10 days of healing.
  • Attend your scheduled follow-up appointments at 2 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months to monitor progress and receive continued guidance.
  • Be patient with the growth cycle—initial shedding is normal, with new growth typically beginning around months 3-4 and continuing to improve through month 12.

What is the Cost of a FUE Hair Transplant?

At Atlantis Medical, we know that the cost of a FUE hair transplant is an important factor in your decision. Each transplant is unique, with pricing depending on the extent of hair loss and the number of grafts required. Our tailored treatment plans ensure you receive the best results to suit your needs and expectations.

All prices include GST and post-operative follow-ups. We do not differentiate between FUT and FUE hair transplants, offering clear and transparent pricing.

Frequently Asked Questions

A FUE hair transplant is an excellent option for individuals looking to restore hair in smaller areas affected by hair thinning or hair loss. It is particularly suitable for those with tighter skin in the donor area, where strip harvesting may not be feasible. Our specialists will assess your hair type, scalp condition, and restoration goals to determine if you are a good candidate for the procedure.

The duration of a hair transplant procedure depends on the number of hair follicles being transplanted. Typically, it can take anywhere from a few hours to a full day for smaller areas, while larger sessions may require a second day to achieve optimal results. Our team will provide a personalised timeline during your consultation.

The FUE hair transplant technique is performed under local anesthesia, ensuring a comfortable and pain-free experience. Most patients report minimal discomfort during and after the procedure, and the recovery period is relatively short, allowing a return to daily activities within a few days.

After the procedure, the transplanted hair follicles will initially shed within a few weeks. This is a normal part of the process, as the follicles enter a resting phase before new growth begins. You can expect to see noticeable improvement in thinning hair around 3-4 months post-surgery, with full results typically visible between 12 to 18 months.

The results of an FUE hair transplant are long-lasting, as the transplanted hair follicles are resistant to the effects of hair loss. However, factors such as genetics, ageing, and lifestyle choices can impact future hair thinning, making proper post-operative care and maintenance essential for sustained results.

The key difference between FUT and FUE hair transplants lies in how hair follicles are harvested to address hair loss concerns and achieve natural results.

  • FUT Hair Transplant: Involves removing a thin strip of scalp from the donor area to extract hair follicles, offering extensive coverage and preserving natural hair growth patterns.
  • FUE Hair Transplant: Extracts individual follicles directly from the donor area, providing a minimally invasive solution with no linear scarring and a natural blend with your own natural hair.

Both methods provide effective hair transplant solutions, and the best choice depends on factors like hair loss severity and personal goals. Our team can help determine the right approach for you.
