FUT
Reference only — not medical advice. See disclaimer.
Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT), also known as the strip method, is a hair transplant technique in which a strip of scalp bearing hair follicles is surgically removed from the donor area, typically the back of the head, and then dissected under microscopy into individual follicular units for implantation. It allows a large number of grafts to be harvested in a single session but leaves a linear donor scar.
