If FUE Doesn’t Satisfy My Hair Needs, Can I Then Have a Strip Surgery?
Im a 58 year male who is seriously considering transplant surgery to restore my frontal hairline area. Im interested in the FUE procedure. My question is if Im not satisfied with the results can I still undergo strip harvesting in the future
I realize your question is very limited and I don’t know anything about your hair loss, but based on what you are asking I think you are going about this completely wrong. First, you need a Master Plan for your hair loss.
Follicular unit extraction (FUE) is a great surgery, but it has limitations. One of the main reasons you should have an FUE procedure is because you want to cut your hair short in the back without seeing a linear scar. If you don’t mind the linear scar (which I assume to be the case if you’re considering the strip procedure), I’m not sure why you’d want to go with FUE to start with. There’s a list you might find to be an interesting read — The Pros and Cons for FUE / Strip Harvesting.
So while the short answer to your question is “yes”, I think you should seek a good hair transplant surgeon to discuss your overall goals and expectations.
