Manual FUE Hair Transplant
Introduction
If you are looking for effective hair restoration, you should consider manual FUE hair transplant procedure. This procedure is characterized by its accuracy and minimal scarring, which makes it the best choice to rejuvenate your appearance and restore self-confidence.
Overview
In the process of manual FUE hair transplant, hair follicles are extracted using a manual punch, in contrast to the procedures that rely on extracting hair follicles on a motorized micro-punch.
This technique limits the risks of torsion and friction of the follicles and causes less damage to the neighboring grafts than with a motorized punch.
In this procesdure, the manual extraction is performed in lateral slit, unlike the motorized micropunch which must be placed vertically to the scalp for the extraction of the graft.

prepare for manual fue hair transplant surgery
If you decide to have a manual FUE hair transplant procedure, you must first consult a hair transplant surgeon who will evaluate your hair loss pattern and also evaluate the availability and quality of the hair هn the donor area.

steps of manual fue hair transplant surgery
A manual FUE hair transplant surgery includes the following steps:
Step 1-Anesthesia:
Local anesthesia is applied to the recipient area and the donor area, which is often the lower back part of the scalp because this area is resistant to baldness.
Step 2-Graft extraction:
The hair follicles are extracted using a manual punch, where an alternating rotation is made around the follicle and then extracted using a micro-clamp.
Step 3-Preserve the grafts until they are transplanted:
Once the hair follicles are harvested, the grafts will be placed in a sterile aqueous solution, awaiting their transplantation into the receiving area within one hour of their extraction.
Step 4-Making grafting paths:
The ducts are opened using a sapphire blade.
Step 5-Hair follicle transplantation:
For an optimal result, the follicles will be re-implanted manually.
Step 6-Plasma injection into the recipient area:
Platelet-rich plasma is injected into the recipient area, providing the transplanted hair with the best chance of regrowth.
recovery after manual fue hair transplant surgery
After having a manual FUE hair transplant procedure, in the first few days after the procedure you may experience some swelling, redness, and mild discomfort in the treated areas.
It’s normal for the transplanted hair to shed within the first few weeks after the procedure. This is normal, and new hair will begin to grow in its place within the following months.
During the initial recovery period, you should avoid strenuous physical activity, or any activities that could potentially disrupt the transplanted hair follicles.
Regular follow-up appointments with your surgeon are essential to monitor your progress, and ensure the optimal outcome of your procedure.
risks and complications of manuaL FUE HAIR transplant
The risks and complications of manual FUE hair transplant procedure are as follow:
• Scarring:
While the manual FUE technique is designed to minimise scarring, some patients may experience small, circular scars in the donor area.
• Bleeding and Infection:
As with any surgical procedure, there is a risk of bleeding and infection at the donor and recipient sites.
• Shock Loss:
Patients may experience temporary shedding or “shock loss” of existing hair in the recipient area. This is a normal part of the healing process, and the hair will typically regrow within a few months.
• Swelling and Discomfort:
It is common to experience some swelling and discomfort in the treated areas following the procedure. This is typically managed with medication and should subside within a few days.
• Unnatural Appearance:
If the transplanted hair is not properly placed or the density is not managed effectively, the results may appear unnatural or “pluggy.”
• Nerve Damage:
There is a small risk of temporary or permanent nerve damage in the treated areas, which can result in numbness or altered sensation.
