Why it matters
FUE made short haircuts possible after transplantation and is now the dominant technique worldwide. Quality depends on punch size, extraction pattern and how gently grafts are handled — differences invisible on a price list.
What to ask
Who performs the extractions — the surgeon or technicians? What punch diameter is used? How is the donor area protected from overharvesting?
