REINVENTING HAIR TRANSPLANTATION
FUE vs FOLLIGEM
The FOLLIGEM technique represents a significant advancement over traditional hair transplantation methods, including Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE). While FUE remains a valuable option for many patients, FOLLIGEM's innovative approach addresses several limitations of traditional techniques, offering a promising alternative for those seeking advanced hair restoration solutions.
FUE (FOLLICULAR UNIT EXTRACTION)
Donor hair is harvested from the back of the head using 0.9mm to 1mm punches, and transplanted to the recipient area. The donor area does not regenerate, resulting in small but permanent scars. This technique is more invasive and has a longer recovery time.
FOLLIGEM
Folligem uses micro 0.5-0.6mm extraction of partial follicular units. The donor area fully regenerates, preserving the natural hair supply and allows for multiple procedures over time. This less invasive technique results in minimal scarring and faster recovery.
DONOR AREA
0.9-1.0mm full extraction of donor follicle
RECIPEINT AREA
Large grafts placed further apart yield thin coverage
PROCEDURE
RECIPEINT AREA
Achives lower hair density and less natural looking results
DONOR AREA
Donor hair never regrows, further procedures limited

DONOR HAIR NEVER REGROWS
FUE removes entire follicular units from the donor area. These follicles never regrow, leaving permanent scars and depleting the patient's finite hair supply. This irreversibly limits future transplant options.
DONOR HAIR REGROWS FULLY
FOLLIGEM's patented technique extracts only a portion of each donor follicle using custom equipment and preservation solutions. This ensures full regrowth of donor hair, preserving your natural hair density.

LOWER HAIR DENSITY
Traditional 1mm follicular unit transplants require wider spacing, resulting in lower density and less natural-looking hair. This often creates sparse results that fail to mimic natural hair distribution, potentially disappointing patients.
NATURAL & HIGH HAIR DENSITY
FOLLIGEM's smaller follicle units (0.5-0.6mm) allow closer implantation, creating higher density and more natural-looking results. This surpasses traditional methods, achieving fuller coverage that mimics natural hair growth.

LIMITED HAIR RESOURCES
FUE completely removes entire follicles from the donor area, permanently depleting it. This wastes limited donor hair and restricts the number of possible transplants due to finite follicle supply
UNLIMITED TRANSPLANTS POSSIBLE
Because donor hair fully regenerates, FOLLIGEM procedures can be repeated over time. This breakthrough allows for the possibility of reversing even extreme cases of hair loss through multiple sessions.
