STEP 1
Planning & hairline design
The surgeon maps your donor capacity and draws the new hairline with you, follicle density calculated per zone.
FUE hair transplant in Georgia
In short
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) is a hair transplant method in which follicles are extracted from the donor area one by one and implanted into thinning zones. It leaves no linear scar, uses local anesthesia, takes 6–8 hours, and full results appear within 6–12 months.
We performed our first FUE procedure in 2007. Advanced FUE is now our primary technique. Each follicular unit is extracted with a micro-punch under 1 mm in diameter, examined under magnification, and implanted at the natural angle and density of your original hairline.

How does an FUE transplant work?
An FUE procedure at Hairline International follows four stages, all completed in a single day.
STEP 2
Extraction
Follicular units are extracted one by one with a sub-millimeter micro-punch under local anesthesia. Painless after numbing.
STEP 3
Graft preparation
Each graft is inspected and sorted under magnification, then kept in a holding solution to maximize survival rate.
STEP 4
Implantation
Grafts are implanted at the natural angle, direction and density of your original hair. You go home the same day.
01 · Donor area
Selected hair from the back and sides
We assess the usable donor zone and spread extraction to protect the hair that remains.
02 · Count and protect
One follicular unit at a time
Grafts are counted, inspected under magnification and protected in holding solution.
03 · Recipient area
Placement follows your restoration plan
Your surgeon selects the areas, angles and density according to your goals and donor supply.
Illustrative anatomy, not a personalised donor map. The safe harvesting area and recipient plan are assessed individually.
Who is a good candidate for FUE?
FUE suits most patients with stable androgenetic hair loss and a healthy donor area at the back of the head. Your surgeon confirms candidacy at the free assessment.
- Stable hair loss (Norwood II–VI) with a good donor zone
- Receding hairline, crown thinning, or scar camouflage
- Women with traction alopecia or hairline lowering goals
- Active, untreated alopecia areata – therapy comes first
- Severely depleted donor area – the assessment establishes what it can still deliver
Results at our clinic
Full gallery →Our published cases each state the graft count and how many months after surgery the second photograph was taken, shot in the same place under the same light. They are not shown here because the technique used in each has not been confirmed per case – putting them on this page would assert a method we cannot stand behind.
FUE questions, answered
Does an FUE hair transplant hurt?
No. The procedure is done under local anesthesia – you feel only the initial numbing injections. Most patients watch films or nap during surgery.
When will I see the final result?
Transplanted hairs shed in weeks 2–4, then regrow permanently. Visible density appears by month 6, with the full result at 12 months.
How long do FUE results last?
For life. Donor follicles come from the zone that is genetically resistant to balding and keep that resistance after transplantation.
Can FUE be done without shaving my head?
Yes. Our Non-Shave FUE keeps existing hair unshaved in both the donor and recipient areas. It suits selected cases where existing hair can cover the healing sites, such as density enhancement or some repeat procedures. A completely bald recipient area cannot conceal implantation sites with existing hair.
