Outcomes & Results
The FUE hair transplant in Miami presents a permanent solution to hair loss. Because the hair follicles extracted from the back of the scalp are healthy follicular units with a normal enzyme complement, they are still able to grow hair. Once placed within the treatment area, the follicles receive nourishment from blood vessels and start growing hair in the previously balding area.
When the procedure is performed by an experienced medical professional like Dr. Craft, the success rates are extremely high. Keep in mind that sometimes transplanted follicles will fall out before regrowing permanent hair – this is normal and is a part of your hair’s natural lifecycle.

Candidates
While there are no specific traits that define an ideal candidate, good physical health and realistic expectations can often make the recovery process smoother. Generally, a good candidate for a FUE hair transplant in Miami is somebody who would like to reverse the effects of patterned baldness and hair loss. In addition, it is important that patients have sufficient healthy hair on their donor site.
In addition, FUE is a great technique for harvesting grafts that are to be placed into a scar left on a donor site from a previous hair transplant procedure. Finally, FUE transplants can be used for eyebrow and beard restoration.
Procedures & Techniques
In order to perform FUE hair transplant in Miami, the sides and back of the head are shaved, and the grafts are harvested under local anesthesia, while the patient is lying face down. This step of the procedure is labor-intensive and can last several hours, depending on the volume of grafts required.
For smaller transplants requiring less than 500 grafts, we can sometimes shave only narrow bands of hair that can be hidden by the overlying longer hair. However, even when the head is shaved completely for a larger FUE session, the hair grows back extremely quickly and looks normal by 2 weeks.
Once the required number of hair follicles is harvested, they will be placed one by one onto the treatment site. This process can take another several hours. In most cases, the complete procedure requires an 8-10 hour visit.
