FUT Hair Transplant (Follicular Unit Transplantation)
FUT hair transplant, also known as Follicular Unit Transplantation or strip surgery, is a traditional hair restoration method in which a strip of scalp is removed from the donor area and divided into grafts for transplantation. Although FUT can provide a large number of grafts, modern alternatives such as FUE and DHI have become more widely preferred.
