[MarieEvo]

#BeforeAndAfterMondays

This patient underwent a follicular unit transplant (FUT) session with Dr. Carlos K. Wesley in which a total of 2214 grafts were placed

The hair follicles were incubated in autologous (his own) platelet rich plasma (PRP) throughout the duration of the procedure. This, combined with an ATP-containing storage solution has been shown to enhance survival of transplanted hairs.


As with all of Dr. Wesley’s patients, the patient was NOT required to cut his hair for the procedure. As a result, this patient was able to return comfortably to work and social activities within approximately 7-10 days of his procedure.

The patient returned 12 mos after the procedure and images of this patient can be seen below.

Brilliant! Which is easier to do without cutting the hair, FUT or the FUE type of procedure?

Must be so gratifying when they come in 12 months later to see their full results. Good job done here.

Both are challenging and fun to work on but if we have to choose... without cutting the hair, FUT is slightly easier when it comes to just the harvest part, the rest of the procedure are pretty much equally fun to work on.
