Have you seen any cases like this?

Im interested in looking at patients who intentionally overharvested their donor to the top and replaced it with body hair. Have you seen any cases like this that you can link or show pictures of? It might be a strategy that i would opt for in the future.

this is called FIT farming I believe. DRs Mwamba and Bisanga are experts in this field. check out their websites.

I think @mustang case is the best one on here as far as the amount of work done and the detail he's posted about it.

Overharvesting and homogenous depletion are entirely different things.

You want to do the second if this is your approach.

Fit Farming is not the same as donor restocking, fit farming is done in one step. They take out a graft from your donor, take a graft from your body, implant the scalp graft on your recipient and implant the body graft where they extracted the scalp graft. It's an expensive and slow procedure but essentially you can replace everything you take out with body grafts.

Donor restocking is adding BHT grafts to your donor after it has healed or been overharvested or depleted from HT

Yes, that was what i meant. Was everything worth it for you in the end?

I would do it 50 times all over again

I spoke to @Dr. Felipe Pittella about this, and done right, it might be an option. But you will have to accept having a moth eaten donor for some time, while you restock it with BH.
