Based on my pictures, is FUE an option for me or should I go with the recommendation of FUT? I would prefer FUE.

Thanks! The surgeon said they will not need to shave the recipient area.

Thanks Home1212, appreciate the feedback!
I agree I don't want to lower my current hairline as I want it to be natural and age appropriate. I am looking to reinforce the current hairline and temple area's. Both surgeons I consulted with recommend 1000-1100 grafts. I have noticed more thinning the last few years and my thoughts were to do the procedure now before future thinning so it would be less noticeable. FUT has been recommended due to better donor density and coverage.
With the amount of native hair that I have what can I expect 2 weeks and 4 weeks post procedure. Is shock loss something I should be worried about. Trying to figure out how soon to go back to work. I really don't want it to be noticeable. I ask about the 2 week time frame because I will be on vacation in a very warm climate and 3-4 weeks is when I would return to work.
Thanks again

Thank you for the feedback

No nothing regarding follicular grouping was mentioned

Thank you for the feedback! Both surgeons also offer ARTAS, actually one was Dr. Bernstein in NYC. They said FUT would provide better coverage.

Hello,
I am new to this forum, I have been considering FUT for the past 3 years. I would greatly appreciate any feedback. I am 52 years old NW 3 with receding in crown area with dark course hair. I consulted with two HT surgeons and recommendation from both was FUT 900-1100 grafts to reinforce the front hairline and crown area. I originally thought I would get ARTAS FUE but it was not recommended.
To be honest I am a little nervous and would like to know what to expect after the procedure. I am also worried about returning to work in an office setting where I can't where a hat. I am taking 3-4 weeks off from work, will this be enough time to heal where it is not noticeable when I return. Also, will I lose much of my existing hair due to shedding.
I have tried Propecia but experienced side effects that required I stop therapy.
Thanks again for any feedback
Dr. Rahal or Bernstein?
