How Are FUE And FUT Procedure Results Different Than Hair Plugs?

FUE and FUT are the two main procedures that used for the treatment of baldness nowadays. Collectively, we call these two procedures as hair transplant techniques. Recently, the avenues clinic has earned the trust of the people in the field of Ahmedabad Hair Transplant. It shows that the people trust more on this procedure in the comparison of other procedures.

Hair plugs is also a kind of hair transplant and it is said to be an old technique used frequently before hair transplant surgery. Indeed, hair plugs are an old term and it is not used by the doctors in today’s medical world. 

 

When FUT, FUE, and Hair plugs are different types of hair transplant, why hair plug is considered as a different procedure? Is there any difference?

It can be made clear by describing both in brief.

Let’s see!

Hair Plugs:

At present, hair plugs are considered as an outdated procedure. In the 1990s, Strip procedure of hair transplant is completely in use and it had replaced hair plugs. In the procedure of hair plugs, the surgeon removed small pieces of tissue get the hair plug from the back of the head. A plug might contain 20 or more hairs. Then, the surgeon created small holes in the bald area by removing additional circular pieces of tissue and the circles must be slightly smaller than the hair plugs. The hair plugs were transplanted into the holes.

Hair Transplant:

Follicular Unit Transplant and Follicular Unit Extraction are the widely used types of hair transplant surgery. In this surgery, the hair follicles are removed from the donor sites of the body and transplanted to the bald areas that are generally called recipient sites. The donor sites not only include the back of the head but other parts of the body can act as the donor sites as well.

What Is The Difference?

In the recent world, hair transplant procedures are preferred by the doctors and the patients due to various reasons. Hair plugs procedure involves removing 20 or more hairs per plug but now the doctors use FUE in which specific follicular units are borrowed in the naturally occurring groups of one to four hairs. It is clear that large hair plugs would leave large white circular scars. Secondly, the growth of the hair looks extremely unnatural. The hair plugs like arranged together in rows in the bald areas. It means the pattern of the natural hair with these hair plugs looks odd.

Unlike hair plugs, hair transplant gives you a totally natural look with nicely blended natural and transplanted hairs. The scars made by hair transplant surgery are comparatively extremely smaller and mostly scars can be observed if the viewer is near to the patient.

Which Procedure Is Effective?

Nowadays, most of the authentic doctors use hair transplant. The reasons for the preference have been described above. At the Avenues clinic, Ahmedabad Hair Transplant is just an irreplaceable procedure and thousands of the patients believe that only this procedure can cure them completely.
