What is a FUE Hair Transplant?

FUE (follicular unit extraction) is a hair transplant technique that harvests individual follicular units from the back and sides of the scalp — where hair is genetically resistant to balding — and implants them into thinning or bald areas. Because grafts are taken one at a time, FUE leaves tiny dot scars rather than the linear scar of older strip-harvest methods.

The procedure takes several hours to a full day under local anesthesia. Transplanted hairs shed within a few weeks (this is normal), then regrow from about month 3 to 4, with full results at 12 to 18 months.

Cost depends heavily on the number of grafts needed. Choose a board-certified surgeon or experienced hair restoration specialist and review their own patient results.

What to ask your provider

Frequently asked questions

How much does an FUE hair transplant cost in San Diego?
An FUE hair transplant in San Diego typically starts at $6,000 and ranges up to $10,800 or more. Cost is driven by the number of grafts — often $4 to $8 per graft — so a larger transplant costs more. Confirm what the quote includes.
FUE vs FUT — what is the difference?
FUE extracts individual follicular units, leaving tiny dot scars and allowing short hairstyles. FUT (strip method) removes a strip of scalp, leaving a linear scar but sometimes yielding more grafts per session at a lower per-graft cost. Your surgeon will recommend based on your hair and goals.
When will I see results from a hair transplant?
Transplanted hairs shed within a few weeks, which is normal, then regrow starting around month 3 to 4. Noticeable density appears by 6 to 9 months, with full results at 12 to 18 months.
Will a hair transplant look natural?
In experienced hands, FUE results look very natural because grafts are placed to mimic natural hair direction and density. Reviewing the surgeon's own before-and-after photos and ensuring proper hairline design are the keys to a natural result.
