About the Clinic

Hair Transplants of Florida is a hair restoration practice in Fort Myers serving southwest Florida. It offers follicular unit extraction (FUE) hair transplantation, in which individual grafts of one to four hairs are harvested with an automated handheld tool rather than robotic systems, alongside the FUT "strip" method, and notes that patients with very curly hair may be less suited to FUE. A procedure day begins with a consultation to confirm the patient's goals, followed by a mild sedative, trimming and anesthetizing of the donor area, graft harvesting, creation of recipient sites, and placement of single-hair grafts at the frontal hairline with larger groupings toward the mid-scalp and crown; the donor area is then bandaged and medication and healing instructions are reviewed.

Procedures Offered

FUE
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) is a minimally invasive hair transplant technique where individual hair follicles are extracted one by one from the donor area using a small circular punch tool. The harvested follicles are then carefully implanted into the balding or thinning areas of the scalp. This method leaves tiny, nearly invisible scars rather than a linear scar, resulting in faster healing and the ability to wear shorter hairstyles. Because of this, FUE is the most popular hair transplant technique today.
FUT
FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation), also known as the "strip method," involves surgically removing a narrow strip of scalp from the donor area, typically the back of the head. The strip is then carefully dissected under a microscope to separate individual hair follicles, which are implanted into the recipient areas. While this technique leaves a linear scar that requires longer hair to conceal, it allows surgeons to harvest a large number of high-quality grafts in a single session, making it cost-effective for patients needing extensive coverage.
