Understanding FUE Hair Transplant: What to Expect

The Truth About Hair Transplants

Hair loss can significantly impact confidence, but modern FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) has made restoring your hair safer and more effective than ever.

What is FUE?

FUE involves extracting individual hair follicles from a donor area (usually the back of the head) and implanting them into thinning areas. Because it moves individual follicles, there is no linear scar.

The Timeline to New Hair

  • •Months 1-2: The transplanted hair will shed. This is completely normal and part of the process.
  • •Months 3-4: New, fine hair begins to grow.
  • •Months 6-8: Noticeable thickness and density.
  • •Month 12: Full, mature results are visible.
  • Consult with our Cosmodent experts to see if you are a candidate for FUE.

    Key Takeaways

    • FUE leaves no linear scar.
    • Transplanted hair sheds first before permanently growing.
    • Final results take up to 12 months.
