Hair transplant is a constantly evolving science. From the time that it was conceived by Dr. Norman Orentreich to the present state, the procedure of hair transplant has undergone multiple advancements. In this article, we discuss in brief regarding the strip follicular unit transplantation. We summarize the major points regarding the procedure of strip follicular unit transplantation along with some nuggets of experience that we have gathered over time. We briefly deal with the indications, anesthesia, procedure, and complications of strip follicular unit transplantation and some special scenarios like the repeat excision of strip.

Background: Endometrosis (chronic degenerative endometritis) results in morphological changes in the equine endometrium and impairs its secretory function. However, the effect of this condition on the myometrium remains unclear. Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) may affect female reproductive function and embryo transport by influencing uterine contractility through its receptors (LPARs).

Article Synopsis
- There are two main techniques for extracting hair follicles in hair transplantation: strip harvesting (FUT) and follicular unit excision (FUE), but no research shows one is definitively better than the other for achieving dense results.
- This study aims to compare the FUT and FUE methods by looking at the number of hair follicles containing three or more hairs and the ratio of hairs to follicles in patients who had both procedures done.
- Results indicate that FUE had a higher number of follicular units with three or more hairs and a better hairs-to-follicular-unit ratio, but it's challenging to declare one method superior given that various factors influence the choice of technique.

Follicular unit excision (FUE) is a very effective and valuable modality for obtaining donor hair follicles using manual, motorized, or robotic devices to harvest individual donor follicular units in situ without a linear donor scar or visible scarring making it ideal for patients who wish to wear their hair short and hide signs of surgery. Over the past two decades, FUE has become increasingly popular, and the rising demand for FUE has driven the worldwide market size of hair restoration surgery (HRS) to an unprecedented height.FUE has revolutionized the HRS industry and offers excellent cosmesis and high patient satisfaction.
