Long Hair FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) 

Restore your hair without SHAVING YOUR HAIR

If you’ve been considering a hair transplant but feel hesitant about shaving your head, Long Hair FUE may be the perfect option for you. This advanced technique allows us to perform follicular unit extraction (FUE) while keeping your existing hair long. That means you can preview how your hair will look right away, without waiting for it to grow back.

​

What is Long Hair FUE?

Long Hair FUE is a modern hair restoration technique where individual hair follicles are gently removed from the back or sides of your scalp and transplanted into thinning or balding areas. Unlike traditional FUE, you don’t need to shave your head before the procedure. We work around your existing hair, which:

• Preserves your current hairstyle

•  Allows you to see results instantly

• Keeps the procedure more discreet

​

Why Choose Long Hair FUE?

✔ Immediate Preview – See how your new hairline and density will look right away.
✔ No Shave Required – Ideal if you prefer not to cut your hair short.
✔ Natural Results – Each follicle is placed with precision for a seamless, natural look.
✔ Discreet Healing – Since your longer hair covers the donor area, signs of the procedure are less visible.

​

Who is a Good Candidate?

Long Hair FUE works best for people who:

• Want to keep their hair at its current length during and after the procedure

• Need to return to work or social events quickly

• Are seeking natural, undetectable results

• Have enough donor hair at the back or sides of the scalp

• Lower recipient graft requirements

​

What to Expect
   1.    Consultation – We’ll examine your hair, discuss your goals, rule out scalp disease, make sure you don't have any significant medical issues, and make sure Long Hair FUE is the right option for you.
   2.    Procedure Day – Under local anesthesia, individual hairs are harvested and carefully placed in thinning areas.
   3.    Recovery – Most patients return to daily activities within a few days to 2 weeks. Your longer hair helps camouflage the donor area. Please note these hairs will shed at 2-6 weeks (Active follicles remain) 
   4.    Results – You’ll see an instant preview, with fuller, permanent growth appearing gradually over the next 6–12 months.
