FUE is a minimally invasive hair transplant technique where individual follicular units (1-4 hairs) are extracted directly from the donor area using micro punches (0.7-1.0mm). The follicles are then implanted into recipient sites in balding areas. This method leaves tiny, barely visible scars and allows for faster healing compared to strip harvesting methods.

FUT involves removing a strip of hair-bearing scalp from the donor area (usually the back of the head), which is then dissected under microscopes into individual follicular units. These units are transplanted into the recipient area. This method typically yields more grafts in a single session but leaves a linear scar.

SMP uses specialized pigments and needles to deposit tiny dots on the scalp that mimic hair follicles. This creates the illusion of a fuller head of hair or a closely shaved head. The procedure requires 2-4 sessions and results can last 3-5 years before requiring touch-ups.
