FUE Scar with Keloid
A keloid, sometimes referred to as a keloid scar, is a tough heaped-up scar that rises quite abruptly above the rest of the skin. It usually has a smooth top and a pink or purple color. Keloids are irregularly shaped and tend to enlarge progressively. Unlike scars, keloids do not subside over time.
This is a photo of a patient who had keloid and received FUE procedure.

Why we don’t offer FUE procedure?
Why we don’t offer FUE procedure?
Because we don’t think it’s your best interest!
Don’t listen to what people tell you! Take sometime, do your study seriously, ask questions, use your own intelligent and make your own decision.
Differences between FUT and FUE:
The only different between FUT and FUE is donor harvesting.
FUT uses blade and FUE uses punch. The recipient site transplant are completely the same.
Different tool used produced different result!

Why most surgeons prefer FUE?
FUE: need only one technician
FUT: need 3-4 technicians
In addition to the overhead expense, the surgery fee is double for the FUE technique. The incentive using FUE for physicians are simply irresistible. Especially for new physician who’s just starting his practice with only 3 to 5 surgeries a month. It’s difficult to start a business when you need to hire 3 to 4 technicians to assist.
Some surgeons do everything by themselves without hiring any assistance to save on business costs. It is for their own best interest, not yours.

ISHRS Warning
FUE Scars
FUE don’t produce linear scar but create thousand of punch scars. To transplant same amount of hair, the scar of FUE will be 10 time more than FUT because FUE wounds are leaved open, so they will keep the same size but FUT wound are closed and almost of the time it will be reduced to 10% or less.
