Operation stages with FUE
During a hair transplant, hair is relocated from one area rich in hair to an area where an increase in hair growth is desired. Hair follicles that have been transplanted take root within 24 hours and immediately begin producing natural, growing hair.
The hair transplant is always performed under local anesthesia. The method that is used by almost every clinic is called FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction).

What is FUE?
- Your own hair is relocated and takes root in the area that it is transplanted to.
- A modern technique resulting in natural looking results.
- Permanent solution for female and male hair loss.
What happens during a hair transplant?
The difference between FUE and FUT
FUE – natural results and does not leave scars
With the FUE technique, a microdrill is used to loosen the hair follicles in the donor area. The hair follicles are then extracted with foreceps. When everything has healed, there will be no scars in the area where the hair follicles were extracted from or in the area where the hair follicles were transplanted. At Nordic Hair Clinic, we use manual FUE, administered and performed by our hair technicians.

FUT – leaves a scar in the donor area
When performing a hair transplant using the FUT technique, or the strip method, as it is also called, a strip of skin is removed from the back of the head. Then a scalpel is used to extract the hair follicles from the skin strip. FUT leaves a large scar in the back of the head once everything is healed. For this reason, Nordic Hair Clinic does not use the FUT technique.
