Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) is a modern, minimally invasive hair transplant procedure that uses your own healthy hair follicles to restore thinning areas with natural-looking results. No stitches, no linear scarring—just real regrowth that lasts.
At Vanity Medical Spa in Paramus, NJ, Dr. Robert Berberian, MD offers personalized FUE treatments for men and women ready to take control of their hair loss journey. Whether you’re restoring your hairline or thickening thinning patches, FUE delivers lasting confidence, one follicle at a time.
What Is FUE?
FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) involves harvesting individual hair follicles from the back or sides of the scalp—areas genetically resistant to hair loss—and transplanting them into thinning or balding areas.
Unlike the older strip (FUT) method, FUE leaves no linear scar, heals quickly, and allows for precise placement and a natural look. The treatment is performed under local anesthesia and can be done in a single day depending on the number of grafts needed.
Best For:
Receding hairlines
Balding crowns or temples
Patchy beards or eyebrows
Men and women with moderate to advanced hair loss
Patients looking for permanent results
