Great results for sure. If you've already done strip then just do it again. Get as much as you can with strip and save FUE for when you are stripped out.

Dr. G: 1,000 grafts (FUT) 2008

Dr. Paul Shapiro: 2,348 grafts (FUT) 2009 ~ 1,999 grafts (FUT) 2011 ~ 300 grafts (Scar Reduction) 2013

Dr. Konior: 771 grafts (FUT) 2015 ~ 558 grafts (FUT) 2017 ~ 1,124 grafts (FUE) 2020

Wow! Love seeing stories like this. You were pretty much totally bald before and now you've got a good amount of hair and a strong hairline. Congrats!

 

I'm thinking that you should stay with strip for your 2nd HT since you tend to wear your hair a little longer in the back anyway. Also, you'll probably never need to really cut your hair super short the rest of your life. You had such amazing results with strip on the 1st HT, I'd just keep it consistent if I were you.

brilliant results. Definitely go for a second HT as i think it will complete what you are aiming for..

It's great to see what you've achieved here as your before pictures resemble exactly how my dads hair looks currently, and hes also wanting to get a HT. I'll have to show him your results :)

First off, your hair looks great. You've had a wonderful transformation and an obvious cosmetic improvement. Congratulations!

 

As for whether or not you do FUE or FUT for your second procedure, I would suggest that you seriously consider FUT. The reason is that you still have a lot more area to cover. I can't say for certain, but it looks like you're going to need another 3,000 grafts, IMO.

 

Also, you're going to be dealing a lot with the crown and I just feel like due to the unpredictable and slow nature of the scalp, you would want to maximize the potential for a great yield... but that is just my opinion.

 

From what I hear, many say that the second time around is a breeze compared to the first. So bear that in mind...

 

Good luck. I would definitely consider going back to Dr. Path based on what a fine job he did for you the first time.
