Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) for atrichia

Pubic hair transplantation is a Hair transplant method for individuals with atrichia or hypotrichosis—whether congenital or acquired—who lack pubic hair or have insufficient density, by harvesting healthy hair follicles from the occipital region and transplanting them to the area lacking pubic hair. It can be considered when pubic hair is sparse due to various causes such as constitutional or genetic factors, or hormonal changes. A personalized transplant plan is established by comprehensively assessing the current distribution and density of pubic hair, skin condition, and body type. Through a pre-surgical consultation, the desired range and density of pubic hair are determined, and the design is created by considering the individual's body type and the distribution of existing pubic hair. Designs can be created in various shapes, such as inverted triangle, rhombus, diamond, or dispersed, and are planned to blend naturally while considering individual preferences and the bikini line. Subsequently, healthy hair follicles are harvested from the occipital region, and after selecting the necessary follicles, they are transplanted into the planned area. The process of meticulously adjusting the direction, angle, distribution, and density of the pubic hair growth is crucial, and if existing pubic hair is present, the transplantation is performed to ensure it blends naturally with the surrounding hair. Transplanted hair may temporarily shed after surgery, after which new hair will begin to grow. Due to the nature of using occipital hair, periodic maintenance such as length trimming may be required after growth, and the exact transplant range and the number of grafts required are determined after consultation with the medical staff.
