Dr. James Vogel- 'STEALTH' Donor Technique For Discrete FUE Harvesting

[Dr. James Vogel]

FUE is a terrific option for selected patients. One short term disadvantage is the need to shave the entire donor scalp. By shaving a discrete and relative narrow portion of scalp, the hair above the harvested area can be used to hide the donor region. This technique does take more time and detailed planning but can be performed for up to 1200 FUE grafts and more in dense donor scalps. This 'stealth' FUE donor technique is popular for obvious reasons and I thought the HT Network Community would find it interesting. Pictured here are approximately 1000, 0.8mm FUE harvest sites.

Well, It's better than having the entire back of the head shaved . I would like to see this patient's photos in 1 year and see if these areas look full or thinner than normal .
