Long Hair Fue Punch questions and answers

Long hair FUE, also called no-shave or unshaven FUE, is follicular unit extraction performed without shaving the donor area. Each follicular unit is excised with its hair shaft intact, so the patient leaves without a shaved band and the surgeon sees the hair's real length and direction at placement. It calls for a punch designed for long hair, such as the Garry Long Hair Fue Punch.

The Garry Long Hair Fue Punch is Garry Medical's FUE extraction punch for no-shave and long hair FUE, designed for excision with the hair shaft intact. It is crafted from Japanese Steel (Garry J-Steel) and comes in 3 diameters, Ø 0.8, 0.85 and 0.9 mm, all with a 4.0 mm working length (order codes LPCH-080-40, LPCH-085-40 and LPCH-090-40). Every punch is manufactured in Türkiye, inspected individually before it ships and supplied non-sterile in an autoclavable hard-shell case. The 3 sizes are listed on the Long Hair Fue Punch family page.

The Garry Long Hair Fue Punch is made for hair transplant clinics and surgeons that offer, or plan to offer, no-shave FUE, and for the medical distributors who supply them. Garry Medical sells B2B only and supplies clinics, hospitals and distributors worldwide direct from the manufacturer. Clinics that offer no-shave for selected cases usually keep standard FUE for the rest, so the long hair punch sits on the same tray as the standard Garry Fue Punch.

No, not every case is a candidate for no-shave FUE: donor characteristics and session size still decide, and the surgeon makes that call. Many clinics offer no-shave for selected cases and standard FUE for the rest, so both workflows share the same tray. Our long hair FUE guide explains how clinics fit them together.

No, long hair FUE is offered alongside shaved FUE rather than instead of it. Most practices that add it keep standard FUE as their volume workflow and use no-shave extraction as an additional option for selected cases. For extraction in a shaved or trimmed donor, the matching instrument is the Garry Fue Punch, in 25 sizes.

The Garry Long Hair Fue Punch comes in 3 sizes: Ø 0.8 mm (LPCH-080-40), Ø 0.85 mm (LPCH-085-40) and Ø 0.9 mm (LPCH-090-40), all with a 4.0 mm working length, and the published diameter is the inner diameter. Each diameter has its own order code and its own product page, and availability and lead time are confirmed per code on the quotation. The size table is on the Long Hair Fue Punch family page and in the online catalog.

A Garry Long Hair Fue Punch order code names the diameter and the working length: LPCH-085-40 is a long hair punch of Ø 0.85 mm with a 4.0 mm working length. The first number is the inner diameter in hundredths of a millimetre (080 = 0.8 mm, 090 = 0.9 mm) and the last is the working length in tenths (40 = 4.0 mm). Ordering by code lets a clinic reorder the same size it used before.

The Garry Long Hair Fue Punch diameter follows graft caliber: Ø 0.8 mm (LPCH-080-40) is typically chosen for finer donor calibers, Ø 0.85 mm (LPCH-085-40) for mixed follicular units and Ø 0.9 mm (LPCH-090-40) for multi-hair units and coarse calibers. Final sizing depends on the surgeon and the protocol. Tell us your typical graft mix through the contact page and we suggest a starting configuration in writing.

The Garry Long Hair Fue Punch comes in a single 4.0 mm working length because it is a deeper stop, suited to longer follicular units. Working length is how deep the punch's cutting portion reaches and is matched to follicle depth. The choice between sizes in this line is therefore made on diameter alone: Ø 0.8, 0.85 or 0.9 mm.

No, the Garry Long Hair Fue Punch is published in 3 diameters (Ø 0.8, 0.85 and 0.9 mm) with a 4.0 mm working length only, and Garry supplies its published sizes. Finer diameters (Ø 0.7 and 0.75 mm) and other working lengths (2.5, 3.0, 3.5 and 5.0 mm) belong to the standard Garry Fue Punch line, which has 25 sizes.

Garry Medical does not publish a maximum hair length or lumen length for the Garry Long Hair Fue Punch. The punch is designed for excision with the hair shaft still in the lumen, so the donor area is not shaved and the unit keeps its full-length hair for placement. If your protocol depends on a particular hair length, describe it through the contact page and we answer in writing.

The Garry Long Hair Fue Punch is crafted from Japanese Steel (Garry J-Steel), machined, finished and individually inspected in Türkiye. Garry J-Steel is the name Garry Medical gives to the Japanese steel used for its punches and implanter needles. No steel grade, hardness figure or coating is published; if your purchasing or reprocessing team needs material details, ask through the contact page and we answer in writing.

The Garry Long Hair Fue Punch has a cutting tip designed for long hair, with an edge designed for excision with the hair shaft still in the lumen. Tip details such as a window, slot or serration are not published for this line (the serrated tip on the site belongs to the standard Garry Fue Punch). Ask through the contact page and we answer in writing.

The Garry Long Hair Fue Punch is designed for shaft-intact excision, which is the engineering goal of long hair punch design: the shaft should leave the excision unbroken, without a ragged cut around the unit. Results in a session also depend on donor characteristics, angle reading and operator technique, and Garry does not publish outcome figures. The design goals are set out in our long hair FUE guide.

No-shave FUE calls for a punch designed for long hair, such as the Garry Long Hair Fue Punch, because a standard FUE punch only has to encircle the unit below the surface of a clipped donor, not work with a full-length shaft in the cutting path. Long hair FUE changes both the workflow and the instrument. The Garry Long Hair Fue Punch has an edge designed for excision with the hair shaft still in the lumen.

Reading follicle angles is more demanding in no-shave extraction with the Garry Long Hair Fue Punch, because long strands can obscure the follicle's true angulation. Published clinical experience with no-shave techniques notes that it takes longer per graft and asks more of the operator, so angle reading through full-length hair is trained deliberately. Our long hair FUE guide sets out what the technique asks of the team.

Garry Medical does not publish graft numbers for no-shave sessions with the Garry Long Hair Fue Punch; session size is the surgeon's decision and depends on the donor. Donor characteristics and session size decide whether a case suits no-shave extraction, and clinics adding the service usually build the team's rhythm on smaller cases before offering full sessions. Our long hair FUE guide covers how clinics plan it.

A clinic introducing no-shave FUE with the Garry Long Hair Fue Punch usually starts with smaller cases so the team builds its rhythm before offering full sessions. The skills of standard FUE transfer, but reading follicle angles through full-length hair and shaft-safe handling take deliberate training, and sessions are scheduled as the longer service they are. For the instruments, request a quote for a small first order through the contact page.

Long hair grafts carry their full-length hair, so placement is its own discipline: they pair naturally with forceps placement or with implanter workflows whose needle is sized generously for the graft. Because the hair keeps its length, direction and angle stay visible at placement. Garry supplies the DHI Implanter Pen & Needle family in Ø 0.7 to 1.1 mm for pen placement.

No, the Garry Long Hair Fue Punch is supplied non-sterile and is intended for reprocessing: clean, rinse and dry it, then steam-sterilize it at 134 °C according to your facility's protocol before use. It ships in an autoclavable hard-shell case, in which the punch is stored between sessions.

The Garry Long Hair Fue Punch is rinsed immediately after the session, cleaned ultrasonically in a neutral-pH detergent and steam-sterilized at 134 °C, following your facility's protocol, with the lumen cleaned by flow. For lumened instruments such as punches, the site's general care guidance names a prevacuum cycle, which removes air actively before steam is injected. For a reprocessing detail the product page does not cover, ask us and we answer in writing.

Clean the Garry Long Hair Fue Punch lumen by flow rather than with wires or brushes, after an immediate rinse and neutral-pH ultrasonic cleaning. Ultrasonic cleaning uses cavitation to strip debris from lumens that brushes cannot reach reliably. Then store the punch in its autoclavable case.

The Garry Long Hair Fue Punch is reusable and intended for reprocessing: clean, rinse and dry it, steam-sterilize it at 134 °C and replace it once the edge shows wear. Garry does not publish a number of cases per punch; service life depends on edge retention and on how the instrument is handled and reprocessed. Keep the cutting edge away from hard surfaces to protect it between sessions.

No, the Garry Long Hair Fue Punch is not re-sharpened: Garry does not re-sharpen or refurbish instruments, and a punch whose edge shows wear should be replaced. Because each size has its own order code, the replacement is ordered by the same code, for example LPCH-085-40.

The Garry Long Hair Fue Punch is supplied non-sterile in an autoclavable hard-shell case, and instruments are packed individually before dispatch. The case protects the edge between procedures and can go through the autoclave, and the punch is stored in it. The punch is sold individually or in boxes of 10, a box designed for clinics and distributors that buy in volume.

Each released Garry Long Hair Fue Punch is matched to the catalog size it was made to and carries that size's order code, LPCH-080-40, LPCH-085-40 or LPCH-090-40. Diameter and working length are checked before release, so a delivery can be checked against the order code by code.

The Garry Long Hair Fue Punch ships as tracked freight direct from Garry Medical's facility in Türkiye to clinics and distributors worldwide, with no importer in between. Lead time is confirmed per order code on the quotation, and the order confirmation states the estimated dispatch date. Shipping terms to your destination are set out on the quotation as well.

The Garry Long Hair Fue Punch is priced by quotation, and prices are not published on the public site because they depend on the order codes, the volume and the destination. Request a quote on the contact page with the codes and quantities you need and you receive a written quotation within 24 hours on business days, with every size listed by its order code. Each product page also has a Get a Price Quote dialog with a WhatsApp option.

Yes, you can request a quote for a small first order of the Garry Long Hair Fue Punch to try on comparable sessions before you standardize a no-shave offer. Long hair extraction is technically demanding, so a sensible first order is a small evaluation quantity across the diameters you are considering. Quantities and pricing are confirmed on the quotation; start on the contact page.

The minimum order quantity for the Garry Long Hair Fue Punch is confirmed on the quotation, together with lead time and shipping. Request a quote on the contact page with the sizes and quantities you need and we reply within 24 hours on business days.

Yes, the Garry Long Hair Fue Punch can be quoted and ordered together with the standard Fue Punch, Sapphire Blade and DHI Implanter Pen & Needle families in a single request. List the order codes and quantities on the contact page form, or tick several product models in the product page's Get a Price Quote dialog, and each size appears on the quotation by its own code.

Yes, the Garry Long Hair Fue Punch is supplied direct from the manufacturer to clinics and medical distributors worldwide. Distributors and high-volume clinics can apply for a dealer account with partner pricing and online ordering; our team reviews applications within 1-2 business days. Fewer teams offer long hair FUE than standard FUE, so the line sits well beside a standard punch range.

The Garry Long Hair Fue Punch is designed for no-shave excision with the hair shaft still in the lumen, in 3 sizes (Ø 0.8, 0.85 and 0.9 mm, 4.0 mm), while the standard Garry Fue Punch is used where the donor is clipped short and has a serrated cutting tip in 25 sizes (Ø 0.7 to 0.9 mm, 2.5 to 5.0 mm). The diameters overlap, both are crafted from Japanese Steel (Garry J-Steel) and both are inspected individually before release. Clinics that offer both workflows keep both punches on the same tray.

In shaved FUE the donor area is clipped short so the surgeon can read follicle angles and the punch can seat cleanly, while in no-shave (long hair) FUE the donor stays at full length and each unit is excised with its shaft intact. Published clinical experience describes no-shave extraction as taking longer per graft and asking more of the operator, and it calls for a punch designed for long hair such as the Garry Long Hair Fue Punch. Our long hair FUE guide compares both workflows.

No, no-shave FUE describes how grafts are extracted, while DHI (Direct Hair Implantation) is a placement method in which an implanter pen opens the channel and places the graft in one motion. Extraction is performed with an FUE punch in both cases, so a clinic can extract with the Garry Long Hair Fue Punch and place with a DHI implanter pen or with forceps. Our DHI vs FUE guide maps the instruments.

Long hair FUE and FUT are different harvesting techniques: FUT excises a strip of donor scalp and dissects it into follicular units under magnification, while FUE, including its no-shave form, harvests individual follicular units with a punch. Long hair FUE extracts each unit with its hair shaft intact, using a punch designed for long hair such as the Garry Long Hair Fue Punch. Our FUE instrument guide compares FUE and FUT from the instrument side.

Garry Medical does not publish comparisons with other brands; it publishes the facts a buyer can check against any offer. For the Garry Long Hair Fue Punch these are 3 stated sizes with their own order codes (LPCH-080-40 to LPCH-090-40), a stated material, crafted from Japanese Steel (Garry J-Steel), individual inspection rather than batch sampling, a manufacturer warranty against defects in material and workmanship and an identifiable manufacturer in Türkiye. Ask any supplier for the same points before comparing prices, as our pricing guide explains.

The Garry Long Hair Fue Punch gives no-shave clinics and distributors facts they can check: a punch designed for shaft-intact excision, 3 diameters matched to graft caliber at a 4.0 mm working length, each with its own order code, and Japanese Steel (Garry J-Steel) stated on every product page. Every punch is manufactured in Türkiye, inspected individually before shipment and supplied non-sterile in an autoclavable hard-shell case, direct from the manufacturer. Quotations arrive in writing within 24 hours on business days, and distributors can open an account with partner pricing and online reordering.

Yes, Garry Medical designs and manufactures the Garry Long Hair Fue Punch at its own production facility in Türkiye and supplies clinics and dealers direct, with no importer in between. Core manufacturing, finishing and inspection are carried out at that facility, and every punch passes the line from material intake to packing and dispatch. The process is described on the Production page.
