of Hair Loss
Hair loss isn’t just about looks — it can change how you feel about yourself every day
A receding hairline can make you look older than you feel.
Thinning at the crown or temples often forces you to change hairstyles to cover up.
Many people describe avoiding mirrors, photos, or social events altogether.
And with some treatments, the trade-off can be worse: long scars, unnatural results, or months of downtime.
You deserve an option that restores your hair and your confidence — without the compromises
While FUE is the most widely marketed technique today, FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation) is far from outdated. In fact, FUT remains the best choice for some patients because:
At Surgery Group, we don’t “sell” one method. We explain both honestly, then recommend the right approach for your long-term results.
More grafts in a single session
ideal for advanced hair loss.
Preserves donor supply
leaving scalp areas intact for future procedures.
High survival rate of grafts
thanks to careful microscopic dissection.
Often more cost-effective
when large areas need coverage.
From the first consultation to your final results, everything we do is designed around you.
Personalised planning
Together, we’ll design your hairline, crown, or temple restoration for balance and natural harmony.
Surgeon-led care
You’ll only ever meet with your GMC-registered surgeon — never sales agents.
Total transparency
No hidden costs, no pushy sales — just honest advice and clear pricing.
Meticulous detail
Every graft is placed with care to match angle, direction, and density.
Long-term results
We plan not only for how you’ll look today, but how your hair will age with you in 5, 10, or 20 years.
The FUT Procedure, Step by Step
NHS-trained neurosurgeon, now specialising in hair restoration.
01. Consultation & Planning
Surgeon designs your new hairline or coverage area, and discusses expected graft numbers.
02. Donor Strip Removal
A thin strip of scalp is removed from the donor area (usually the back of the head) under local anaesthetic.
03. Microscopic Graft Preparation & Implantation
Follicular units are separated under a microscope, ensuring minimal damage and maximum survival.
Grafts are carefully implanted into recipient areas, following natural angles and density patterns.
04. Healing & Recovery
Stitches are used to close the donor site. Recovery is typically 10–14 days, with a fine linear scar usually concealed by surrounding hair.
05. Growth Timeline
- Shedding phase: first 2–3 weeks (normal)
- New growth: ~3–4 months
- Density & maturity: ~9–12 months
To make an informed decision, it’s important to know how FUE compares to FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation, aka “strip method”). Here are the main differences:
| Feature | FUT (Strip Method) | FUE |
|---|---|---|
| Donor Harvest | Thin strip removed, grafts dissected under microscope | Individual follicles extracted one by one |
| Scarring | Fine linear scar, concealed by hair | Tiny dot scars across donor area |
| Graft Numbers | Higher graft yield in one session | Lower per session, may need multiple |
| Recovery | 10–14 days, stitches required | 5–7 days, no stitches |
| Best For | Advanced hair loss, maximum grafts | Patients preferring short hairstyles, minimal scarring |
Both techniques are excellent when performed by the right surgeon. The choice depends on your hair loss stage, goals, lifestyle, and donor area. That’s why we offer both — and recommend what’s genuinely best for you.
Large Coverage. Natural Outcomes
FUT has helped many of our patients achieve dense coverage across large areas in a single sitting. Here are some genuine before-and-after transformations.
Great chill transplant, very happy with results
I had a great experience with the surgery group with my recent transplant. Jake put me in touch with Dr Moussa and both were very helpful and informative from initial consultation to aftercare. The whole team are down to earth and explain everything well without being too “sales’y” which is reassuring in this industry.

Hair transplant
The guys were so great and the team on the day were excellent, did an awesome job with my hairline back in 2022 which has grown out to look amazing. Can’t imagine having not done this now. Very professional job and worked with me to choose how the hairline should look (though I more trusted their judgement as I didn’t even know where to start, and it turned out great) …

Very impressed with the hair transplant at SurgeryGroup in Nottingham. It was carried out by Dr Ahmad Noussa and his team there. I had the hair transplant procedure at the crown on August 23rd, three weeks ago.
My head was shaved on the day so be prepared to live with the consequences of that for a month or so afterwards.

11 month post transplant - honest review.
Late 2020 I was driving back from London and stopped to buy a coke. I happened to have a bandage on my head (long story) and the guy at the till asked if I’d had a hair transplant. “A what?” I said.
He rubbed his head and showed off his hair as he explained that he’d been to Turkey and had hair follicles taken from the back of his head and transplanted to the top.

Equally as impressive the second time around.
This time I went back for a partial beard transplant, arrived and greeted warmly along with two techs and Dr Ahmad Moussa, having used Dr Moussa before I wanted him to preform my second surgery. He’s very open, willing to work with you at every turn and won’t make anything happen until you as the patient are happy with it.

It has been a year today since I received my hair transplant treatment of surgery group and I can honestly say I am extremely happy with the result and the quality of care during the procedure, before and after, especially from Matthew, Jake and the other staff involved. I was really made to feel at ease and I knew I was safe hands.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will FUT leave a scar?
Yes, a fine linear scar remains, but it’s usually concealed under existing hair. Most patients report it’s not noticeable unless hair is shaved very short.
Is FUT more painful than FUE?
Discomfort levels are similar. FUT requires stitches, which are removed after healing. Most patients manage with mild pain relief.
How long before I see results?
New hair begins at 3–4 months, with full results at 9–12 months.
Who is FUT best for?
Men or women with advanced hair loss who want maximum grafts in fewer sessions.
