FUE Hair Transplant
For the millions suffering from male and female pattern baldness, hair loss can feel demoralizing.
Follicular unit excision, formerly known as follicular unit extraction (FUE), can rebuild your hairline and self-confidence.
FUE has a natural look and minimal scaring. Learn more about FUE at Arocha Hair Restoration and Transplant Center in Houston, TX.
What Is FUE Hair Transplant?
The FUE Procedure
The length of hair transplant surgery can vary greatly depending on how many units are needed, but most FUE procedures last between two and four hours.
Recovering From FUE Surgery
Common Side Effects
Following FUE, the scalp will be swollen and sensitive. Patients return home the same day and may resume most normal activities within a few days. Common side effects include:
- Light bleeding
- Tenderness
- Mild pain
- Itching
- Swelling
Patients must not touch the scalp or remove any scabs that arise from the healing process. The newly-transplanted follicles are highly vulnerable during the first few weeks of recovery and can become dislodged due to excess friction or stress. Dr. Arocha provides detailed post-op instructions to all of his patients to help them maximize their recovery and receive optimal results.
"By far the best." Praise From Houston Patients
I've had numerous hair restoration procedures over the last 30 years in many different clinics and I can honestly say that Arocha Hair Restoration was by far the BEST. Reading online about his education and experience was what drew me in initially. After I spoke with his highly knowledgeable consultants I was even more convinced.

We took pictures for a baseline and I was provided a prescription for a fraction of the cost as I typically get it from third parties.
