Senior Member Gasthoerer Posted June 2, 2018 Senior Member Share Posted June 2, 2018 Considering his age and the required grafts I am surprised that FUT method was used. Was this a wish from the client or was he not suited for FUE? 400+ grafts in 2018 and 2900 grafts in 2020 via FUE with Feriduni Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member mattj Posted June 3, 2018 Author Senior Member Share Posted June 3, 2018 As Dr Rahal offers both FUE and FUT, the choice is down to the patient. Sometimes Dr Rahal might feel that one procedure type might be the better choice for the patient (e.g. very tight donor might make FUT difficult), and sometimes they might not be a candidate for one or the other. Patient's will often have a bias towards either FUE or FUT, with it being the former rather than the latter in most but not all cases. FUT shouldn't be seen as outdated.

Senior Member Gasthoerer Posted June 3, 2018 Senior Member Share Posted June 3, 2018 Thank you for the INFO. I do not (!) see FUT as outdated. I just though for this particular case it would not be the preferred choice (low # of grafst, patient above 30), if there are no issues with make FUE imposible. I have been to several clinics for consultation and they recommended FUE even though I asked for FUT (they also do FUE and FUT of course). 400+ grafts in 2018 and 2900 grafts in 2020 via FUE with Feriduni Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps he wants to maximize his lifetime donor supply in order to be able to move more grafts over time as he gets older. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
