Dear Dr. Rassman,
I am considering having a transplant procedure at your clinic. My preference would be to have the fox procedure since I would like the option of a very short haircut and am very physically active…. swimming, etc. and want the least amount of scar detection.
My question is this: Will having a fox procedure possibly limit my donor site options years down the line when I may need to come back to fill in other areas?Thanks!
Everyone has a limited donor bank of hair and FUE will deplete that donor bank just like strip harvesting will do. The question I’ve been asked a few times is: Will there be more donor area with FUE than with traditional strip harvesting? The simple answer is only a guess as no one to my knowledge has pushed the donor supply far enough to find out the answer to that question.
