FUE Hair Transplants
With Capital Hair Restoration
At Capital Hair Restoration, we specialise in FUE hair transplants in the UK, delivered by experienced, GMC-registered surgeons and supported by a dedicated clinical team.
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) is a modern hair transplant technique that involves removing individual hair follicles from a donor area — usually the back or sides of the scalp — and placing them in areas where hair is thinning or no longer growing.
Because FUE does not require any stitches or large incisions, it leaves only tiny, dot-like scars that are often barely visible. This makes it a popular choice for patients who prefer to wear their hair short or want a more discreet option. The procedure is carried out under local anaesthetic and typically involves minimal downtime, with most people returning to normal activity within a few days.
FUE is suitable for treating various forms of hair loss, including receding hairlines, crown thinning, and patchy growth. Each follicle is placed with attention to the natural direction and density of your existing hair, allowing for a natural-looking result that gradually improves over time.
Why Choose FUE?
- Minimally invasive: No stitches or scalpel are required, and scarring is limited to tiny, dot-like marks that are typically not noticeable.
- Quicker recovery: Most patients resume normal activities within a few days, with minimal discomfort.
- Flexible hairstyle options: Because there’s no linear scar, FUE is well suited to people who wear their hair short.
- Natural-looking results: Each follicle is placed individually to match your natural growth pattern and hair density.
- Suitable for various cases: FUE can be used for restoring hair to the scalp, hairline, crown, and even beard or eyebrow areas.

Thinking of a FUE Transplant?
How It Works & What to Expect
An FUE hair transplant is a minimally invasive procedure that relocates individual hair follicles — usually from the back or sides of your scalp — to areas affected by thinning or hair loss. It’s a highly precise method designed to restore natural hair growth with minimal scarring and downtime.
It’s an effective option for:
-
Receding hairlines
-
Thinning at the crown or temples
-
Uneven or patchy hair density
-
Hair loss caused by injury or scarring
FUE Hair Transplant (Follicular Unit Extraction)
Using a specialised micro-punch tool (typically 0.6–1mm in diameter), individual hair follicles are extracted one by one from the donor area and carefully implanted into the thinning or bald areas. The technique avoids any stitches or linear scarring and is performed under local anaesthetic for maximum comfort.
Each graft is placed to match the angle, direction, and natural growth pattern of your existing hair, allowing for a seamless result.
Recovery & Growth Timeline
-
Days 1–5: Mild swelling and scabbing are normal; most patients return to work or daily activities within 2–5 days.
-
Week 2: Transplanted hairs typically shed — this is part of the normal growth cycle.
-
Month 3: New hair begins to emerge gradually.
-
Months 6–9: Significant visible improvement in density and coverage.
-
Month 12+: Full results are usually achieved, with natural, permanent growth.
All FUE procedures at Capital Hair Restoration are carried out by experienced UK-based surgeons using advanced equipment, with a full aftercare plan and support throughout your recovery.

Hair Transplant Journey
I recently had the pleasure of travelling to Istanbul through Capital Hair Restoration for my hair transplant, and I could not be happier with the experience. From the very beginning, the support I received from Steve was exceptional. He was attentive, knowledgeable, and made me feel fully at ease throughout the entire process — from the initial consultation right through to the procedure itself. The clinic in Istanbul was first-class: clean, professional, and clearly experienced in delivering outstanding results. Every step of the journey was clearly explained, and the care and attention to detail made me feel that I was in the best possible hands. Steve remained in close contact throughout, checking in regularly and ensuring that every aspect of the experience met the highest standard. I am genuinely excited to see how my transplant progresses over the coming months. If you are considering a hair restoration procedure and want a team that truly cares about your journey and outcome, I cannot recommend Capital Hair Restoration highly enough.

Who Is FUE Best Suited For?
Understanding If It’s the Right Option
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) is the most widely used technique in modern hair restoration — but it’s not a one-size-fits-all solution. It works best for patients who meet certain criteria and have clear treatment goals.
You may be a good candidate for FUE if:
-
You have mild to moderate hair loss, such as a receding hairline, thinning at the crown, or patchy areas of loss.
-
You prefer short hairstyles — FUE doesn’t leave a visible linear scar, making it ideal for cropped or faded cuts.
-
You want a quicker recovery — most people return to work or normal activities within 2–5 days after surgery.
-
You have a strong donor area — typically the back and sides of the scalp, where follicles are most resistant to shedding.
-
You want results that look natural and age well — each graft is placed to match the natural angle, direction, and density of your hair.
-
You’re planning for future flexibility — FUE allows for more strategic preservation of the donor area if further procedures are needed later on.
If you're unsure whether FUE is the best fit for your goals, our team can assess your suitability during your consultation and offer honest, expert guidance on the best path forward.
