Yea that is what I've come up with too over the year or so of reading this and other forums daily. I consulted with Feller, who suggested a small amount of FUE would be my best bet (something like 50 grafts). At this point I'd be ready to pull the trigger as the risk of further scarring is very minimal. My only concern is payment, I'm only 21, and my parents would likely have to at least help with the procedure. With that being said I realize that $8-10/graft is the industry standard, but some clinics require minimum fees, understandably. However the dynamic of my situation changes considerably b/c if I had to pay a minimum fee of $1500 for a measly 50 grafts(equates to $30/graft), I find that much harder to justify (all things considered I have no REAL problem here). I've wondered if some clinics would waive the minimum payment, as my surgery could likely be done on the same day as a larger session. I believe B-spot from Shapiro said they would only charge on a per graft basis, and even with as good of work they're doing, it'd be tough to get my parents on board to fly me out to the middle of the country (I live in NJ, go to school in Baltimore, MD) for what they think is unnecessary procedure anyways. So at this point I'm just further assessing my situation, seeing if Rogaine will help zap the last few hairs into maturity, and go from there. Thanks for the reply, I appreciate your insight Dr. Lindsey.
