    I think FUE leaving no visible scar is a MASSIVE misnomer. Only under the skill of a good doctor, it is mostly invisible. Under a bad doctor, it can be as visible or worse than an FUT

    Hey man, you're not wrong, FUE when overdone definitely look worse than a pencil thin strip scar. See some horrendous donors following over-harvesting over the years.

    LPP is poorly understood -and I'm guessing way underdiagnosed in males.   Not everyone gets thinning/eyebrows or side burns - but the majority do have itching. 

    There  is an overlap LPP/MBP condition called FAPD (Fibrosing alopecia in a pattern distribution). 

    With LPP and hair transplants there are no certainties - for some they take but eventually fall out a few years later for examples.  For others they get very poor growth - or some combination of the above. I believe some may do well over time but I struggle to find lots of examples as case studies seem to stop after a few years.

    There is no 'cure' for autoimmune - this or others - but there are many treatments. It's a difficult condition to treat but many people get in under control after treatment starts. My symptoms have gotten away better but it still flares from time to time.

    Check out Dr. Donovan's hair pages on LPP  - loads of information on it.

     

     

     

    Hey man, this is interesting. Autoimmune disorders are such a strange phenomenon that I'm surprised there is still no actual cure after all this years. Treatments work, but as soon as you stop, oh no !

    Just posted on the on the other thread, a way forward would be seeking a repair, so Dr Mwamba or Dr Bisanga… both are skilled with Afro centric hair and also with repairs. Reach out to both of them 👍🏿

    Dr Umar in LA could also be a good call. He has done many great repairs. Certainly worth reaching out to see what options may be available. Scalp Pigmentation could also be a potential quick fix to tie you over.....

  4. Hey man, don’t tie yourself up in knots like this with numbers. You can’t be certain that counting every extraction digitally with a red dot is accurate as you have done for hours and hours. That is not healthy dude. Keep calm and await the result. Try to update the forum monthly with your regrowth photos so we can see how it all pans out. This could be helpful for others who psychologically get caught up in the numbers 😎
