FUE is minimally invasive and occurs when one hair graft is taken at a time from the donor area. “This technique is less painful, is associated with a faster recovery time, and has virtually no scarring,” says Gohil. “It is typically accomplished by the surgeon using a manual or motorized handheld device.
