Glenn Charles in Florida. Mohebi in California. I can personally attest to Dr. Charles' excellence since I had surgery with him about 12 years ago and will be getting my 2nd surgery from him soon. No shave FUE is a lot tougher and takes a lot more time.

Mike and all,

Just so everybody is aware, when someone refers to a no shave FUE, they’re talking about both the donor and the recipient areas.   This Is also sometimes called long-haired FUE.

Mike, I suppose my question to you is, is there a specific reason you were adamant about doing a no shave FUE?  While it’s true that the procedure won’t be as noticeful immediately postop, you still have to deal with the shedding of the transplanted hair, postoperative shock loss in potentially both the donor and recipient areas.  So if you’re looking to undergo this procedure so that you can avoid any noticeable transition, it’s not going to work.  Noticeability may be reduced but not eliminated.

Furthermore,  long-haired / no-shave FUE is more difficult to perform which increases risk factors and room for error.

I just wanted to add my two cents.

Best wishes,

Rahal Hair Transplant

This is something that @Parsa Mohebi, MD offers and would be worth looking into. Feel free to reach out to me personally if you'd like to discuss it further or have any questions. I'd be happy to help.
