Micro/Mini Graft Technique?

dr. rassman,

i found a clinic and the surgeon is listed on ishrs.org…HOWEVER…his technique is called the “[name removed] micro/mini graft” technique. is this a something i should do or should i look elsewhere. how does this differ from the FUE technique?? thanks so much.

The standards of care have been published, and Follicular Unit Transplantation (FUT) is the standard for hair transplantation. That means that the hair is taken exactly as they grow — no clumps of hair are used. The micro/mini graft technique is an old, abandoned approach. The last time it was the standard of care was in the mid-1990s. I read the website of the doctor you referenced and I think that he is about 10 years behind.
