FUE: What is FUE?

What is FUE?

Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) is a minimally invasive hair transplant technique that involves extracting individual hair follicles—usually from the back or sides of your scalp—and implanting them into thinning or balding areas. Each graft contains 1–4 hairs, allowing for a natural growth pattern that blends seamlessly with your existing hair.
Unlike older methods such as FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation), which requires removing a strip of scalp, FUE leaves no linear scar, offers quicker healing, and allows patients to wear shorter hairstyles without visible evidence of surgery.

Why Patients in Calgary Choose FUE

Patients across Calgary experiencing hair loss—both men and women—are turning to FUE because it delivers permanent, natural results with minimal disruption to daily life.

What to Expect from Your FUE Procedure at HairNation

 

Your FUE journey starts with a personalized consultation where we assess your hair loss pattern, donor hair quality, and desired results. From there, our Calgary-based team creates a custom plan using high-resolution imaging and precise mapping of your scalp.
At HairNation, FUE procedures are performed in a clean, comfortable environment by highly trained professionals. Most procedures are completed in a single day, with many patients returning to regular activities within a few days. Aftercare is simple and designed to ensure optimal healing and growth.
 

FUE vs. FUT: What’s the Difference?

FUE and FUT both aim to restore hair—but how they get there is very different.
•    FUT (strip surgery) involves cutting a strip of skin from the back of the head, which is then dissected into grafts.
•    FUE extracts individual grafts without the need for stitches, reducing scarring and recovery time.
For patients who want a discreet hair extraction in Calgary with fewer restrictions post-op, FUE is often the preferred method. At HairNation, we help you compare both options during your consultation to determine which technique best aligns with your goals and lifestyle.
 

Natural Results That Last a Lifetime

One of the biggest advantages of FUE hair transplants in Calgary is the longevity. Transplanted follicles are typically resistant to hair loss, meaning your results can last for decades with proper care.
