Laurian Clinic Ltd is a specialist FUE hair transplant clinic based in Bury, serving patients across Greater Manchester and the North West of England.

Follicular Unit Extraction is the most widely requested hair restoration technique in the UK, and for good reason. Rather than removing a strip of donor tissue, the surgeon harvests individual follicular units one at a time using a micro-punch instrument. Each graft is then implanted into the thinning or balding recipient area at a matched angle and direction.

The advantage is scarring. Because no linear incision is made, FUE leaves only tiny circular healing points across the donor region — virtually undetectable once healed, and suitable for patients who wear their hair short or shaved at the back and sides.

Donor follicles are taken from the back and sides of the scalp, where hair is genetically resistant to the hormone responsible for pattern loss. Once relocated, these follicles continue growing permanently in their new position.

FUE suits a wide range of cases: receding hairlines, temple recession, crown thinning and hairline reconstruction. For patients who prefer not to shave, we also offer an unshaven FUE variation, extracting grafts from between existing hairs at full length.

Every case begins with a consultation. We assess donor density, hair calibre and loss classification before confirming whether FUE is the appropriate route — and we say so honestly when it is not.

Procedures are performed under local anaesthetic across a single day. Recovery follows a predictable pattern, with regrowth beginning around month three and final density visible at twelve months.

Serving Bury, Manchester, Bolton, Rochdale, Wigan, Warrington and Blackburn.
