Hair Transplant In Bangalore,
Follicular Unit Hair Transplant with a strip.
Advantages of this technique is that up to  3000 to 4000 grafts are available in a single sitting which can restore large areas with good density in first sitting itself, a strip of hair contains hair roots and skin which is removed from the back of scalp, and the resultant gap is then sutured to close the gap in the skin from where the strip has need removed, at our clinic we use video microscopes to dissect this strip into individual Follicular Units, which may contain 1,2 ,or 3 hair roots ,these follicles are then transplanted into front making small slits from 0.7 mm to 1mm in size to fit in these follicles at an average density of 35 to 40 follicles per square centimeter.
The hair growth from this technique is better compared to extraction, as more stem cells are preserved around the follicles, when cut properly and inserted into the slits made with out damaging the grafts. A large number of grafts are available for  transplant compared to follicular unit  extraction technique.
What are the problems one may face with this technique?
Some of my patients especially ones who do a lot of research online have one comment  to make. “What about the scar that develops after the skin closure on the back?”. The answer to this is to go for Trichophytic closure technique where in the scar which forms is not much visible as hair grow through it, however in the event the scar does form it is easy to make it less visible. By transplanting about 200 grafts with a Folliclur Unit Extraction technique, which helps to conceal the scar.
What is realistic number that one can expect with this technique in terms of number of grafts?
With a strip there are two factors which determine how many can be removed
Density of follicles per square centimeter-which can average from 60 to 100 plus
Length of the strip -which can vary from 20 centimeters to 28 centimeters which is max we have gone in our clinic.
Width of strip-which can vary from 1.5 to 2.5 plus centimeter which is dependent on how loose the skin on the scalp is.
