They pursued research on whether this was a consistent finding and the cause of the issue. After years of observation and contemplation, the answer became apparent. When one harvests a strip, the wound is closed with stiches that hold the wound edges together.
Those stiches apply a tension to the skin above and below the wound proportional to the width of the wound. Whenever skin is put under stretching tension, the skin responds by stimulating mitotic activity to grow additional skin to remove the tension. This process is called biological creep, and is a body process commonly used in cosmetic surgery. For instance, if a woman has breast implants put in, the expansion of the implants stimulates biological creep, and new skin is formed so that the larger breast no longer feels tight and un-natural.
The FUE procedure does not cause any wound tension or stimulate any biological creep. Artas is also more limited in number of grafts extracted and time to perform the procedure. Currently there are no demonstrated improvement in transplant results when FUE is performed by a properly trained hair transplant surgeon.
When properly performed there is no measurable difference in hair growth and naturalness. FUE provides a patient who wants to keep their hair very short in the back the peace-of-mind that no linear donor scar will be visible. FUT on the other hand is a more time and volume efficient procedure that harvests more grafts, more efficiently in a single hair transplant session. When the donor is closed properly the linear scar is so thin that it is not visible unless the scalp is shaved.
The only way to determine which surgical technique is best for you is to consult with an experienced hair surgeon who offers various surgical options. During your consultation your doctor will evaluate the quality of your donor area, your degree of hair loss, age and cosmetic goals and will discuss the benefits and options available to you.
