Briefly about Hair Implantation
The opportunity of implanting hair is based on the fact that during hair loss it rarely happens that all of one's hair falls out. Losing hairstyle is usually caused by a version of testosterone, the DHT hormone, against which the hair on the side and back of the head is fortunately resistant. During hair implantation some of the hair found here is transplanted -in the form of different follicular units, depending on the method- into the thinning or completely bald areas of the head.
Hair implantation -implanting one's own hair- is a relatively modern plastic surgical intervention. However, the initial methods are scarcely used or not used at all in high-standard institutions. We perform the interventions with the most modern (FUE, FUE Safe System and SHE) hair transplantation methods in our hair transplantation clinic.
About the Methods
Prestigeous hair implantation clinics found in Hungary not only use the internationally accepted hair implantation method (FUE), but also add their own innovations to reach the best result in hair implantation.
The Basic FUE Method
The FUE method has definately meant a revolutionary break-through in hair implantation, as opposed to the streak extraction techniques. An opportunity opened to perform acceptable and quality work. Although it is mentioned as single hair extraction in Hungary, the English abbreviation means hair extraction in units (extraction of 2-3-4 or more hairs). The gist of the method is that a 1,0-1,2 mm kortum is used to cut the hair units around. Then the garfts containing these hairs are implanted into the recipient (balding) area after creating the same small holes.
Disadvantages of FUE Hair Implantation Method
Although, it is not frequently discussed, correctness requires everyone to see the imperfections of this method. The drawbacks can be divided into two parts, extraction and implantation. It's clearly visible in the pictures that FUE hair implantation leaves traces. A lot of people claim that these depend on the healing of the wound and skin type, but actually, the donor area's massive thinning can be observed in each case after the FUE intervention.
Conclusion
Not only does the thick needle cut out unnecessarily large skin tissue around the hairs, but it also harms the other hairs closely grouped around, consequently thinning the hairs found in the donor area.
Let's take a simple example. Take a look at your friend's or acquaintace's scalp. It is visible to the naked eye that the groups of hair stand closer than 1 mm to each other in the donor area, so it's unavoidable to harm the hairs beside them, especially in places where the groups of hairs are standing close to each other.
Consequently, with this method we lose precious hairs, which are scarcely available anyway.
During implantation the problem occurs when the thick needle cuts out a large skin tissue around the hairs, which makes it impossible to plant the groups of hairs densely enough because the unnecessary skin tissue gets stuck between the hairs. It is important to note that in case of hair densifying the method is also unpractical, because there the hairs are already located close to each other; it is only possible to implant between existing hairs with a thin needle. This way we will surely not harm the neighbouring hairs during the hair implantation.
Our study was assembled based on several years of experience in the FUE hair implantation method. We do not say this method is bad or inadequate for hair implantation, but there are much finer methods for hair implantation these days (FUE Safe System, SHE).
Besides the numerous modern methods our clinic still uses the FUE method, because it's a relatively cheap intervention and the result is also acceptable, but the above mentioned limits should be known to every client before making a decision which method to choose.
F.U.E. Safe System
In this case we are talking about a more advanced version of the FUE method. With this technique instead of extracting hairs by hand a machine is used for this purpose. This intervention can make the surgeon's job easier, but not in every case. Though it is rarely spoken about, the extraction is just as an important part of the procedure as the implantation. The method itself, by and large, is the same as the basic FUE technique (size of needle, failure rate). Though, with this method the result will not be perfect, we can get a result with a good price/value rate. At the same time it's important to mention that just as in the case of the basic FUE method, it leaves small holes and pathes on the nape, which significantly rarefy the donor area.
S.H.E. Single Hair Extraction Method
HIMG Clinic won the Product of the Year Award in 2013 in the Services category with its S.H.E. hair implantation method.
A method improved in HIMG Hair Implantation Clinic, Budapest. Basically, it is identical with the FUE technique; a more prominent difference can be seen in the applied equipment, which leave an even less obvious trace due to their smaller size.
The most modern hair implantation method. In Hungary, we are the first to use the Zero Touch Method (Z.T.M.) and the unique, worldwide novelty developed in our clinic, which is based on the FUE method: the Single Hair Extraction method (S.H.E.), which has opened new vistas in the field of hair transplantation.
Our hair transplantation intervention is completely painless, fast and simple. With the help of the S.H.E method we are capable of transplanting more than 4500 hairs a day.
The method is also suitable for extracting grafts containing 1-2-3-4 hairs.
Take a look at our video and have an insight into the mysteries of hair transplantation. While getting to know the details, You can become ascertained of the success of our method, which is the result of several years' persistent work.
It leaves no a trace neither on the donor, nor on the recipient area.
We are 100% certain of the success of our method, which is based on our excellent results. The transplanted hairs start growing a few months after the intervention. The result will provide our clients with a perfect appearance.
The hair implantation is done with local anesthesia, in 3 steps, so the intervention is completely painless.
With the help of professional techniques the extraction of follicles has become easier. With the S.H.E. method improved by our clinic, we implant the extracted hairs into the areas of hair loss, or balding areas with great attention, thus almost restoring the original hair density and hair line.
Strengths of the Method
- The grafts are extracted one-by-one from the scalp with the help of special equipment (0,5-0,8 mm needles), which may contain 1-2-3-4 hairs.
- The small openings that emerge during the extraction heal in a short time (usually 4-10 days), disappear without a trace and there are no wounds or scars remaining.
- The traces of smaller pin-pricks that emerge during the intervention completely disappear in a few days (usually 6-12 days)
- Since we do not cut during the method, there is no need for sewing, the sense of pain is minimal, there's only a sense of inconvenience , which is negligible. NO scars, or wounds.
- The donor and recipient areas heal in maximum 1-2 weeks.
- The method is completely painless, there's less inconvenience, it's just like a pin-prick. Anesthesia is done with the most modern equipment that can be found in the world market.

Hair implantation, similarly to the process of hair extraction, is done with local anesthesia, so you will hardly feel anything.
After giving local anesthesia the next step is to prepare the recipient area, which involves the drawing of the hair line and the creation of holes for the hairs.
Then we implant the grafts -the hairs extracted with HIMG Zero Touch Method- with the help of implantation needles.
We use HIMG implantation needles with HIMG Zero Touch Method, which enables grabbing the graft at the hair protruding from it. With this method the graft is not harmed during the implantation. It's perfectly suitable for men and women as well, since the weaker hairs of women do not get damaged either.
Our clinic's precise hair extracting equipment used with the S.H.E. hair implantation method. Incredibly thin and leaves no trace!
General Comparison of Hair Transplantation Methods
Comparing the most modern hair transplantation methods we can say that all of these methods are capable of restoring our patients' natural hairstyle. You may ask why we do not use only the most modern method.
We have noted earlier that we use different kinds of special equipment with the different hair transplantation techniques and the prices of these is not identical. By rejecting earlier methods we would make it difficult for a lot of people to pay the price of hair implantation.
It is important to note that even the oldest, FUE hair transplantation technique used in our clinic leaves traces which are hardly noticeable for the naked eye. They become invisible by wearing just a little bit longer hairstyle. Even in this case choosing the most expensive solution is not necessary.
The interventions are painless, but several years' experience has shown that even anesthesia can cause problems for some of our clients, so we have developed a 3-step pain relief method so they can hardly feel any pain.
During hair implantation it is very important to consider the donor area's size and quality. On this basis we can decide approximately how many hairs can be transplanted and to what extent is this amount capable of supplying the bald areas with hair. It is also important whether our long haired patients allow us to cut their hair short to simplify the procedure. We have to determine whether the patient is graying. When setting up an offer these factors have to be given great attention. These questions can be answered during the thorough hair examination that takes place before every hair implantation procedure.
Consequently, it is obvious that the patients' individual features and needs justify not to use the most modern techniques exclusively. All of the present methods are suitable for creating a more natural hairstyle, and they are incomparable to the earliest hair transplantation techniques.
Comparing FUE and S.H.E hair implantation methods
The price of hair implantation
HIMG Clinic makes the intervention more accessible with regular special offers.
It is well-known that foreigners visit Hungary regularly because of the affordable cosmetic and plastic surgical interventions. It is the same in the case of hair implantation, which can be received at a much lower price in Hungary for medical tourists.
It is worth mentioning in connection with the quality of the Hungarian hair transplantation that HIMG Hair Implantation Clinic -apart from medical tourists- regularly receives groups of surgeons from abroad coming here for further studies. Here, they can become acquainted with the self-improved methods of the institute's specialists.
It is important to note that HIMG Hair Implantation Clinic awaits its Hungarian patients with regular special offers in its headquarters in Budapest.
As opposed to the outdated hair implantation methods we do not cut the scalp, so scars and wounds -that destroy the esthetic effect- do not occur. The hairs are extracted one-by-one from the donor area and implanted into the area to be restored. There will be no remaining traces on the donor area either, as these follicular units are extremely thin.
