Pattern hair loss, also known as male or female pattern baldness—is a genetic condition that affects roughly 50% of men and 40% of women by age 50. Many men notice signs of hair loss in their late teens or twenties, while women may see gradual thinning later in life.

FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) is a hair restoration technique that removes individual follicular units—each containing 1 to 6 hairs—using a micro-punch tool.
Unlike FUT, FUE does not involve removing a strip of scalp, which means:
Some shaving of the donor area is required before the procedure, which is typically at the back and sides of the head. This makes FUE particularly suitable for patients who already keep their hair short.
FUE is ideal for patients in Olympia who are in the early to moderate stages of hair loss, or those who prefer short hairstyles and want to avoid a linear scar.
Great candidates include:
Because FUE is performed under local anesthesia and is minimally invasive, medical requirements are low. Dr. Sajan reviews each patient’s medical history and hair loss pattern to ensure the best outcome.
An FUE hair transplant is performed under local anesthesia. Once the scalp is numb, Dr. Sajan uses a specialized punch tool to harvest high-quality grafts one by one.
He then transplants these grafts into areas of thinning or hair loss, following natural growth patterns.
The procedure takes several hours, depending on graft count, but is comfortable and efficient.
