FUT hair transplant
For patients needing a large number of grafts in one session, FUT can deliver outstanding, permanent results \u2014 with the same surgeon-led care you expect.
Problem
Hair loss isn’t just about looks — it can change how you feel about yourself every day.
Why consider FUT?
While FUE is the most widely marketed technique today, FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation) is far from outdated. In fact, FUT remains the best choice for some patients. We don’t “sell” one method — we explain both honestly, then recommend the right approach for your long-term results.
Ideal for advanced hair loss.
Leaving scalp areas intact for future procedures.
Thanks to careful microscopic dissection.
When large areas need coverage.
From the first consultation to your final results, everything we do is designed around you.
Together, we’ll design your hairline, crown, or temple restoration for balance and natural harmony.
You’ll only ever meet with your GMC-registered surgeon — never sales agents.
No hidden costs, no pushy sales — just honest advice and clear pricing.
Every graft is placed with care to match angle, direction, and density.
We plan not only for how you’ll look today, but how your hair will age with you in 5, 10, or 20 years.
Aftercare you can rely on. Direct contact with the team throughout your recovery. Real check-ins, not auto-emails.
NHS-trained neurosurgeon, now specialising in hair restoration.
Surgeon designs your new hairline or coverage area, and discusses expected graft numbers.
A thin strip of scalp is removed from the donor area (usually the back of the head) under local anaesthetic.
Follicular units are separated under a microscope, ensuring minimal damage and maximum survival. Grafts are carefully implanted into recipient areas, following natural angles and density patterns.
Stitches are used to close the donor site. Recovery is typically 10 to 14 days, with a fine linear scar usually concealed by surrounding hair.
Shedding phase: first 2 to 3 weeks (normal). New growth around 3 to 4 months. Density and maturity around 9 to 12 months.
Comparison
To make an informed decision, it’s important to know how the two techniques compare. Here are the main differences.
| Feature | FUT (strip method) | FUE |
|---|---|---|
| Donor harvest | Thin strip removed, grafts dissected under microscope. | Individual follicles extracted one by one. |
| Scarring | Fine linear scar, concealed by hair. | Tiny dot scars across donor area. |
| Graft numbers | Higher graft yield in one session. | Lower per session; may need multiple. |
| Recovery | 10 to 14 days, stitches required. | 5 to 7 days, no stitches. |
| Best for | Advanced hair loss, maximum grafts. | Patients preferring short hairstyles, minimal scarring. |
Both techniques are excellent when performed by the right surgeon. The choice depends on your hair loss stage, goals, lifestyle, and donor area. That’s why we offer both — and recommend what’s genuinely best for you.
FUT has helped many of our patients achieve dense coverage across large areas in a single sitting. Here are some genuine before-and-after experiences.
I had a great experience with my recent transplant. Jake put me in touch with Dr Moussa and both were very helpful and informative from initial consultation to aftercare. The whole team are down to earth and explain everything well without being too sales-y, which is reassuring in this industry.
— Jonathan Race
The guys were so great and the team on the day were excellent, did an awesome job with my hairline back in 2022 which has grown out to look amazing. Can’t imagine having not done this now. Very professional job and worked with me to choose how the hairline should look.
— Receding
The whole experience was fantastic from start to finish. I was looked after and talked through the whole procedure. A little nervous going into the unknown, but I would never look back. It’s been 11 months now and I have a full head of hair. The team are great.
— Mr Andy Crossley
Fantastic team! Professionalism throughout the whole process. Jake’s knowledge and advice through the aftercare is second to none. Regularly checking in and making sure everything is on track. Thanks guys!
