1. Is FUE Hair Transplant permanent?
Yes, FUE hair transplant surgery can be a permanent solution for treating baldness or hair loss. The transplanted hair follicles in the area where there is hair loss are genetically programmed to grow naturally. During the procedure, hair follicles are extracted from the patient's body, preserving the natural hair's properties from where it originated and designed to remain in place forever.
2. Is FUE hair transplant successful?

Many leading FUE hair transplant doctors report an impressive FUE hair transplant success rate. Practo surgeons have treated patients experiencing FUE hair loss procedures and know its complexities.
3. Does FUE look natural?
With innovative hair transplant methods and technology, we can expect natural-looking results. A successful hair transplant depends on several factors such as:
- The surgery techniques used: FUE (Follicular unit extraction) or FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation)
- Hair thickness
- Grafts extraction as per the required proportion
4. Which is better: FUE or DHI?
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) hair transplant surgery is a popular surgery in which groups of 1-4 hair follicles or grafts are removed and kept in a solution. On the other hand, DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) hair transplant surgery is new and similar to FUE, which does not leave a scar after the surgery. However, the most crucial difference between FUE and DHI is how the grafts are implanted.
5. Does a FUE hair transplant leave scars?/Is FUE a scarless hair transplant surgery?
During FUE hair transplants, round surgical punches are used to remove hair follicles. There are no linear scars; however, there is a good chance of visible scarring after a few months. Scarring is less pronounced than the continuous linear scar seen in strip hair transplants. The size of the FUE scar is proportional to the FUE punch size as well as the patient’s healing mechanism.
