FUE hair transplant on African hair.

FUE on African-American hair can be a difficult procedure.Depending on the curl of the follicle (J-shaped,C shaped,etc), the rate of transaction can be high if not done by an experienced Hair Restoration surgeon.The vast majority of cases go very well but typically the number of grafts that can safely be harvested are less than in other ethnicities due to a lower inherent density in African-Americans.

Hair transplant is more challenging in African Americans, African Caribbean or anyone who is known as black with curly hair.  There are especial techniques that needs to be used in transplanting hair to patients of African descent.  Hair follicles being too curly makes it mandatory for the doctor to use especial tools and technique to make sure the grafts are harvested intact and grow well at the end.
