Alopecia affects many individuals worldwide. Owing to the large role that hair loss plays in self-image and self-confidence, an increasing number of these men and women seek options for hair restoration. Major considerations and sources of hesitation for strip surgical restoration are the visible linear scar, prolonged downtime, and other expected side effects of invasive procedures. These problems can be circumvented by smaller harvest approaches. However, the traditional punch harvest, which produces no linear scar, does leave patients with an often-unsatisfactory "doll hair" appearance. Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) is a minimally invasive surgical procedure that utilizes a punch device to harvest occipital follicular units that are later transplanted in areas of loss to restore hair growth. FUE captures the benefit of multiple available restoration techniques and avoids the disadvantages of traditional strip surgery. A number of variations on the procedure are currently in practice and many more exciting advances are underway.
脱发影响着全球众多人群。由于脱发在个人形象和自信心方面起着重大作用，越来越多的男女开始寻求恢复头发的方法。条带式手术修复的主要顾虑和犹豫因素包括可见的线性疤痕、较长的停工期以及侵入性手术的其他预期副作用。这些问题可以通过较小的毛囊采集方法来规避。然而，传统的打孔采集虽然不会产生线性疤痕，但往往会让患者的头发呈现出不尽人意的“娃娃头”外观。毛囊单位提取（FUE）是一种微创手术，它使用打孔设备采集枕部毛囊单位，随后将其移植到脱发区域以恢复头发生长。FUE兼具多种现有修复技术的优点，同时避免了传统条带式手术的缺点。目前该手术有多种变体在实际应用中，并且更多令人振奋的进展也正在进行中。
