Original Title:
Microimplante capilar por técnica de extracción de unidad folicular (FUE) para alopecia
Authors' recommendations:
Scarce evidence of low methodological quality was found, assessing the follicular unit extraction technique in hair micro transplant with aesthetic purposes in androgen-related alopecia and other indications. The studies identified do not show relevant benefits. No randomized clinical trials have been identified, and there are no studies comparing this surgical technique with the standard medical treatment for alopecia.
This technique is not considered in the surveyed clinical practice guidelines, nor is it covered by health sponsors or regulatory agencies.
