The Follicle Unit Extraction treatment is always provided by a fully trained plastic surgeon and their medical team. The surgeon begins by anaesthetising the scalp. After that, the medical team extract grafts from the scalp from the donor area, which will usually be the back of the patient’s head. The surgeon and hair technicians will then transplant these grafted follicles onto the reception area. Currently, Kliniek Veldhoven are the only providers of the FUE process. We take safety and quality seriously – we always use plastic surgeons to carry out the procedure to the highest possible standards. The entire Kliniek Veldhoven team participates to ensure an attractive and successful end result.

One factor could be Androgenetic Alopecia, which is the most common inherited variety of male pattern baldness. However, baldness is not restricted to men. Androgenetic Alopecia is an inherited form of permanent hair loss. Hair loss will affect around a third of men aged between 25 and 40 and is a very common condition. Generally, this will begin at the hairline or crown at the back of the head. Hormones play a significant role on the progression of Alopecia, with the male hormone dihydrotestosterone (DHT) of particular importance. If men are genetically disposed to be sensitive to DHT, then they can experience hair loss. This form of hair loss is particularly associated with baldness around the crown. What happens is that DHT curtails the “growth phase” of male hair, killing off the hair roots, and very slowly replacing old hairs with “downy” hairs.

While Androgenetic Alopecia is commonly referred to as “male pattern baldness”, it can afflict women as well. This often takes the form of thinning hair, often on the top of the head where it is highly visible. This can also be associated with the menopause, when hormonal changes stimulate the thinning of hair. If there is hair loss before menopause, then hormonal imbalance may also be to blame. In cases like these, consulting an endocrine (hormone) specialist may be necessary to trace the precise causes of the hair loss.

At Kliniek veldhoven, we only provide patients with access to the FUE hair transplant technique.

Good clinics should be able to assess quickly and accurately the possibilities and limits posed by transplantation techniques, and should keep abreast of any developments in the world of hair transplantation. Additionally, good clinicians establish friendly, but honest, relationships with clients so that trust is ensured. Clinicians must inform patients about all treatment options, and it is also vital that they listen closely and sympathetically to the wishes of clients. Taking this into account, clinicians should then advise clients fully about the best hair transplantation for them. Anyone considering a transplant should bear the following factors in mind when choosing a clinician:

1. When considering a transplantation treatment, try to visit a number of hair clinics before you make a final decision.
2. Think about what tools and methods clinicians will be using for your hair transplant. Will they use micro needles, a laser microscope or punchgrafts? Along with the experience and skills of the medical team, having high quality equipment is vital to a successful transplantation procedure.
3. When consulting with your doctor/clinician, they should inform you about the number of transplantations required and the treatment process. Clinics can tend to quote very low prices at this stage, but don’t be fooled. They may be promising a very small quantity of grafts. Usually, the price of the procedure is proportionate to the number of grafts being made.
4. Consider hair density when choosing a procedure. You don’t want a low hair density which gives a thin, wispy result. Check with the clinician how many follicular units will be implanted per square centimetre.

No. If carried out properly under a local anaesthetic, the procedure is almost completely painless. Local anaesthetic can produce a feeling of “tightness” in the head, which may last for a few days but aside from this no pain should result.
