Could FUE Give Me a Hairline Like Morrissey?

Hello Doctors

My question is about FUE & FUE2. Would it be realistic expectation for a male patient who is a Norwood IV and benefiting from Propeciea in the crown to achieve a good density in a conservative and mature frontal hair line? I get the impression from your previous entries that it may be expecting too much . I do also understand from the all the great articles you have provided that FUE seems to best used for smaller amounts of grafts needed in patients.

If i could get a outcome to resemble something like this mans hair i would be happy: Morrissey photo

I think that’s a great look. Thanks for your time and all the great info.

The density has nothing to do with the harvesting method used, just the number of hairs per square mm that the grafts are placed in. Generally, depending upon hair/skin color and hair texture, the amount of hair needed to look full will reflect somewhere between 25-50% of your original density. One reason follicular unit extraction (FUE) might be best used for smaller cases has more to do with costs involved, since it is the more expensive procedure.

Could you look like Morrissey, the musician shown in the photo you linked to? I suppose that depends on what you start with. It is a great look, and if you have similar hair type and the grafts available, I don’t see why it isn’t possible. Take a look at our photo gallery and see hundreds of patient results. Or better yet, come to an Open House and meet some of our patients in person.
