What is Novel follicular unit excision devices?
Kesa Clinic chose the novel follicular unit excision devices, brands “Dr. UGraft” and “Trivellini.” Trivellini’s punch device has advanced functions such as multiphasic movement and suction-assisted function. The All-purpose Intelligent punch of Dr. UGraft has a very convenient function; the scalp type has been classified into several representative ones, and the surgeon can select the corresponding mode.
In addition, Dr.Umar also developed an all-purpose FUE device that minimizes hair follicular damage through the so-called “minimal-assist-navigation” phenomenon using a frustoconical, textured end-designed punch that can cover all scalp types. He also introduced a function that allows easy extraction of the graft lodged within the punch lumen. All of these existing devices possess various innovative and brilliant functions, but the focus has been on reducing follicular damage or graft transection.
