[Seoul = Newsis] Reporter Min Ki-hong = As the number of patients with non-incisional hair transplantation (FUE) increases, hospitals that have lowered the cost sharply have appeared, and hot advertisements are taking place online. Accordingly, those who are suffering from hair loss will inevitably become more worried about choosing a treatment method.

Non-incisional hair transplantation involves collecting each hair follicle individually. It shows the greatest difference between the incisional hair transplantation (FUE), in which the hair is removed from the back of the head in the form of a long band and then separated one by one through a microscope.

The hair follicles collected one by one by a non-incisional method are immediately transferred to the transplant site. In this process, the hair follicles collected during this process should be observed with a microscope to check whether there are any problems and transplanted. This is because it is not large enough to be fully confirmed just by looking with the eyes.

However, if each hair follicle is checked under a microscope and unnecessary elements for transplantation are removed, a skilled surgical team is required like a non-incisional hair transplant, and it is difficult to maintain a low operating cost due to the burden of labor costs.

There is a lot of difference between what was checked with the naked eye and what was checked with a microscope. There may be a problem in which the seed is planted randomly without confirming whether it is healthy or alive, and only the patient is blamed for not growing.

Dr. William. R. Rassman of NHI New Hair, who is known as the founder of follicular hair transplantation, also pointed out that “not using a microscope to do follicular hair transplantation is just an imitation of a bare shell. .

In this regard, Kim Jin-oh, director of the NHI New Hair Hair Transplantation Center, said on the 10th, “The difference between the non-incisional method and the incisional method is in the hair collection process.” He added, “The method of harvesting is different, but checking for abnormalities in the hair follicles before transplantation should not be omitted for any reason.”

Director Kim said, “Because the hair transplant surgery is performed only with partial anesthesia at the transplant site, the person can check the entire procedure.” It is advisable to check whether or not to write a record before surgery.”

In the end, the first thing that should be prior to hair transplantation is to examine whether non-incisional hair transplantation is appropriate for you. Regarding this, Director Kim cautioned, “It is an excuse to visit a hospital and ask questions in front of a doctor. If you do not check it properly, you may get irreversible results.”
