The difference between FUT and FUE is in the extraction of the follicles needed for hair restoration. FUT can cause visible scarring after the surgery. Since every person's skin loses elasticity with age, the scar from FUT widens and negatively affects the results. In contrast, FUE also leaves scars, but they're barely noticeable. Skin laxity is also not a deterrent, so older patients can get this surgery, and they'll have natural-looking results. However, FUE is more expensive since it is more labour-intensive. Discuss the pros and cons of each surgery with your doctor before making your final decision.
