Question

What is the Micro Fue method?

Jae Pak, MD · Answer

FUE is a method of harvesting hair follicles. It stands for Follicular Unit Extraction.  Many clinics or doctors may call it something different to advertise and rebrand the FUE terminology or to claim a slightly different way of doing the procedure.I am sure someone will soon coin the term Nano-FUE.

Ali Emre Karadeniz, MD · Answer

There is no such thing as 'Micro FUE' in the hair transplant literature.There is FUE.It is a known marketing strategy to make up names for an existing technique to make a difference in the market.The goal is to make the patients ask clinics 'Do you perform Micro FUE?'.This was the patient believes this is a good method and chooses from only clinics that do it.He will think that the clinic that doesn't do it isn't up to date on current surgical techniques!

William Rassman, MD (retired) · Answer

Doctors love to make up names for the surgeries that they do and claim authorship to it. It is an ego thing. I was the pioneer of FUE and originated the name. The world followed my lead.
