There have only been two techniques for hair transplantation for more than fifty years: FUE and FUSS. Both procedures offer the same aesthetic results in the area where the hair is implanted. This is because the way the Follicular Units are implanted is exactly the same in both techniques. The difference between FUE and FUSS lies in the way the hair follicles are extracted from the donor area.
In the FUE technique (the technique chosen in most cases), we extract the follicles individually, one by one. With FUSS, on the other hand, a strip of skin is cut with hairs to be selected later by specialised technicians. At Clínica Arencibia we specialise in the FUE technique because of its superior advantages for the patient: it leaves no linear scar, facilitates a faster recovery and allows follicular units to be extracted from any area of the body.
