Senior Member thanatopsis_awry Posted March 2, 2008 Senior Member Share Posted March 2, 2008 You'd be referring, I'd have to assume, to FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction); make no mistake, it is still serious surgery, just like FUT ("strip) despite leaving (in the right hands) less visible scarring, and a quicker recovery....there is a tremendous amount of hype and deceit regarding FUE -- and the debate centers around how viable it is for "megasessions"; whereas there is little debate that a wholly successful strip procedure can take place exceeding 5k grafts. If you have minimal hairloss (say you need 1k grafts), and happen to be a good candidate (which you can't actually determine until doing the op), and don't mind paying a premium (it is much more time consuming, and thus expensive, than strip) I think it is fantastic. Def explore it further, though, there are some great -- and informative -- threads on here with a candid discussion on FUE's limitations and benefits. ----------- *A Follicles Dying Wish To Clinics* 1 top-down, 1 portrait, 1 side-shot, 1 hairline....4 photos. No flash. Follicles have asked for centuries, in ten languages, as many times so as to confuse a mathematician. Enough is enough! Give me documentation or give me death!
