Strand-By-Strand® Hair Transplant (FUE)

The Strand-By-Strand® hair transplant uses follicular unit extraction (FUE) to harvest and transplant individual grafts matched to the patient's natural hair angle, direction, and density. Available for men and women, packages from AUD $6,995 include a six-month Advanced Laser Therapy (ALT) program and Advanced Follicle Direct (AFD) topical medication with liposomes, plus ongoing specialist support. Optional PRP Growth Factor sessions and Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy add-ons available.

Advanced Hair Studio Adelaide offers the Strand-By-Strand® hair transplant — the clinic's proprietary FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) surgical technique performed at the North Adelaide studio on Ward Street. FUE involves the individual extraction of follicular units (groups of one to four hairs in their natural configuration) from the donor area — typically the occipital and temporal scalp where DHT-resistant follicles reside — using a precision micro-punch instrument that leaves only tiny circular scars largely invisible to the naked eye, unlike the linear scar associated with the older FUSS/FUT strip harvest method. Each extracted graft is placed into a recipient site created at a precise angle, depth, and direction that matches the patient's native hair growth pattern, replicating the natural density distribution across the balding or thinning zones. Graft counts range from approximately 500 for hairline refinement procedures to 3,500 for more extensive coverage, with the exact number determined at the initial consultation based on donor density, recipient area, and desired aesthetic outcome. All transplant packages include a six-month course of Advanced Laser Therapy (ALT) — low-level laser therapy using the clinic's FDA-cleared devices to stimulate follicular ATP production and extend anagen hair growth phase — as well as Advanced Follicle Direct (AFD), a topical medication incorporating active ingredients delivered via a liposome carrier for enhanced scalp penetration. These bundled adjuncts are designed to maximise graft survival, accelerate healing, and support existing hair in the surrounding zones. Optional add-ons at the Adelaide studio include Stem Cell Infused PRP™ Growth Factor sessions administered pre- and post-surgery to augment follicular signalling via PDGF and VEGF, and Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT) to improve scalp tissue oxygenation and recovery. The procedure is available for both male (androgenetic alopecia Norwood I–VI) and female (diffuse thinning, female pattern hair loss) patients. In Adelaide and across South Australia, Advanced Hair's long-established brand and breadth of adjunct therapies position this as a comprehensive surgical hair restoration option. Specialist GP referrals are eligible for Medicare bulk billing. Financing arrangements, including installment payment structures, are available for eligible patients.
