Sure nice to hear from someone who has had both FUT and FUE. Thank you for sharing. I had FUT 3 years ago with excellent results. However the area in the front of my reconstructed hairline is rather thin now, so I am planning a second procedure to fill in the area. My concern with FUE is the 10% loss of harvested hair follicles. FUT has a much lower loss. Is this something I should be that concerned with? Other than this higher loss, FUE seems like the better way to go. The recovery from my FUT was not fun, but I could deal with it for a higher survival rate. Just hate the idea of throwing away 5% more of the grafts using FUE vs. FUT. I have read that robotic FUE (ARTAS) has a higher survival rate, but only a 1mm punch vs. .09 or .08 of manual FUE, so more scaring. Sure would like to get the boards opinion on this. Thank you!
