Frequently Asked Questions

  • Are Surgical Hair Transplants Safe?

    Surgical hair transplants are one of the reliable treatments for hair loss and can achieve natural-looking permanent hair. With a simple procedure involving one or two sessions with your hair restoration physician, this procedure can restore balding crowns and receding hairlines.

  • Are All Types of Hair Loss the Same?

    Hair loss conditions vary from person to person. For some, it might be hereditary, while for others, it might be a different scalp condition.  The patients needs to be assessed by a hair loss professional to determine the cause of scalp hair loss and the best options available.

  • How Many Hair Transplant Sessions Would I Need?

    For some patients, one session of transplants to an area of complete loss or an area of early thinning may be enough. Other patients may eventually have a second session to finish transplanting an area of the scalp that continued to experience a gradual loss of the pre-existing non-transplanted hair over time.

  • How Long Does the Transplanted Hair Last?

    For the vast majority of patients, transplanted hair lasts a lifetime. In some cases, the transplanted hair may thin as the patient ages.

How FUT Hair Transplants Can Give You Your Hair Back

By Dr. Paul Cotterill • November 23, 2024
Losing your hair can be devastating for your confidence. Whether because of age, stress, medication side effects, or anything else, thinning hair and receding hairlines can result in low self-esteem and depression. There are many different treatments out there aimed at helping you get your glorious locks back. There are 2 accepted techniques for removing hair from the scalp for hair transplantation.

Follicular Unit Transplantation , ( FUT ), refers to clipping a strip of hair from the back of the scalp and with a scalpel removing an ellipse of scalp which is then dissected under microscopes so as to minimize any damage to the hair follicles. Dr Paul Cotterill in Toronto provides Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) hair transplant surgery to help you regrow your hair to its full potential once again. This blog explores the FUT hair transplant process so you can better understand why this hair transplant procedure is a great treatment for hair loss.
