Both behave the same with the follicular unit. The flared punch has a thinner outer wall, with less friction at the tip: it suits body hair transplant or hair at a very acute angle.
Lesson content
There are two punch types: the flared and the edge out.
- The edge out has the cutting edge outside and the bevel inside.
- Both have the same dynamics with the follicular unit, with the tissue being obtained.
- The difference: the outer wall of the flared punch is thinner, so the tip has much less friction.
The flared punch suits body hair transplant or scalp hair that grows at a very acute angle: there is less friction between the skin and the punch.
