Overview
Hair transplantation is possible for Afro patients, but the kinky nature of the hair makes the surgery more technically challenging.
FUE can be considered in selected cases, often with larger punches and more time devoted to harvesting fewer high-quality grafts.
What matters in the plan
- Curved follicles increase the risk of follicle transection.
- FUT can be valuable for challenging hair types because the grafts are dissected under direct microscopic vision.
- Experience with Afro-textured hair is essential.
