hello, i just had approx 1500 grafts strip procedure 8/25/06. the doctor used what they call the pinpoint procedure using a surrenge needle to make the inscions. what is your take on this procedure and will i need to have FUE in the future to create a natural looking hairline or does the pinpoint procedure have good enough results for a natural lookng hairline?? your advine would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
Some doctors seem to make up terms that do nothing but confuse the public with marketing mumbo jumbo. With your confusion, this sounds like such a case. I did search for the term using Google and found the description for the “Pinpoint” technique appears to be follicular unit transplantation, of which I wrote a published classic article on the subject over a decade ago. Based on the limited text available on the doctor’s site, I don’t see anything different, new, or innovative about this technique.
Not sure about crooked, but for a select few it can cause LNS*
