  1. Okay I can respect that. I agree it is a small minority and totally up to the patient. Fue is the gold standard and I believe that but fut can still benefit some who may not have a good donor and need every last graft.
  2. But it doesn’t take away from the use of fut and its importance to some. And if it is outdated in your mind then I’d reconsider some doctors you have on the recommended list who are big believers in fut and its importance. I definitely firmly think fue is great but fut still 100% has its place
  3. Well yes but you can always fue into the scar. Also most massive mega sessions are not taking 100% safe zone grafts. Those grafts could easily thin or die just like the tip of your head. It is pretty much impossible to get 10k grafts in a safe zone
  4. I have no clue. Would be interesting to know stats on that
  5. Very true. I find that interesting. Pretty smart honestly. Is Saifi good though? I’ve heard mixed reviews on density
  6. No I agree with you fue is better in majority of cases but if you are young have great laxity and are bound to a high Norwood then I’d say fut should still be considered. Some people heal great too so I understand if fut is on the table for them. But fue is the present and the future of the industry
  7. I think he means my 1.5k-2k more lifetime grafts with fut into fue than fue alone. Pretty sure Dr Shapiro had a study about two years ago regarding it. Yes fue has advanced but no one would ever perform fut if you only got 500 more grafts. You definitely are getting over 1,000.
  8. No it is easily 1.5-2k more. But if you have bad laxity then yes not worth it
  9. Isn’t one of the draws to fut that it takes hair from the safe zone while fue takes some grafts outside of the safe zone? So really these large fue cases could easily lead to thinning years down the line?
  10. I think the hairline looks great for 7.5 months. He still has 5 months or so to thicken. I don’t think there is a need for a touch up free of charge unless OP is willing to add more grafts at his cost. We have to remember that hair transplants don’t give us natural density. This looks like someone who has aged but no one would assume he is balding
  11. Oh I was viewing it as fut first than fue compared to just fue. But who knows maybe it wouldn’t matter. Big fue cases are taking hair outside of the safe zone too though while a good fut is usually in the safe zone. But yes multiple strips leads to big scars should rarely do more than 2
  12. Well yes it is more popular but it is very case to case for the benefit to each patient! I still believe if done correctly fut will yield more grafts in the long run but if you are on medication and have hair loss under control than fue is certainly better!
  13. What are the overall thoughts on his clinic? ISHY had a good case even though the scar wasn’t the best but he is one doctor I don’t see a ton of patient reviews on. Is he good with density and minimize fut/fue scarring?
  14. Is it getting worse? The back isn’t as bad but the sides don’t look great. If it was to stay like that I’d assume you could get some grafts for sure but don’t know where it will end up
  15. But what is the time frame on the scar still stretching? Like 2 years after I’d assume it won’t stretch?
  16. Oh okay sweet. I didn’t know if cutting up the pill would make it lose its effectiveness
  17. Is Proscar any less effective since you cut it up I assume it loses its value? Also if you cut it 4 ways and take one a day then parts of that cut up pill are just sitting waiting to be used. So I wonder if that impacts effectiveness since it isn’t a whole pill waiting to be taken
  18. I have no clue to be honest. I’ve just heard it is hard to get around
