If you're that worried about the FUT scarring, I'd consult with a reputable Doc that performs both procedures. That way s/he can recommend the course of action they think will work best. Depending on your density/coarseness; FUT shouldn't be a major concern if you go to a talented Doctor. Hell I have my hair slightly longer than I usually wear it (usually get it cut via scissor the tightest a stylist can perform) and my staples aren't visible.

 

If you have a decent donor area and want to preserve more for possible future HT, then FUT might be worth looking into.

The ones like myself who have had successful FUT (in terms of result and scar) will vouch for FUT.

 

The ones who have obviously had a bad experience with FUT will say go the FUE route.

 

Ultimately it's what you think is right for you based on research and consulting with the doctors. At least you've put 6 months in already which is good.
