Hey, most surgeons don't do FUT as they mostly train in FUE these days (much simpler to learn) FUT requires a lot of training / skill to complete successfully. It's a dying art with most of the newer breed of surgeons who don't learn it. Many years ago before FUE came about it was all that was available! It definitely has its place in the modern day to maximise the available donor hair and for longer hair cases like yours.
I look forward to seeing your photos 👍
