Mr. Varun came to us seeking a hair transplant repair after having undergone a previous FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) procedure elsewhere. He was dissatisfied with the unnatural appearance of his hairline and had concerns about the density, as he had been promised a high number of grafts during his previous surgery.

Notably, Mr. Varun had an excellent donor area with thick, robust donor hair. When working in the hairline area of patients with such thick hair, precision and care are paramount. We have consistently observed in our repair cases that patients are often promised an excessively high number of grafts during their initial procedures. It is crucial to be cautious and not fall victim to such misinformation, underscoring the importance of undergoing evaluation by an honest surgeon.

Furthermore, it is essential to recognize that both FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation) and FUE are effective hair transplant methods. The ultimate choice should be made after a thorough discussion at a clinic where both techniques are performed, ensuring that an informed decision is reached.

In Mr. Varun's case, he expressed a preference for not shaving his head during the surgery. Such surgeries can be challenging and time-consuming. We conducted the procedure using the FUT method, and remarkably, the patient was fit to resume his duties the very next day. Subsequent follow-up pictures reveal a fuller and softer-looking hairline compared to before. The gaps behind the hairline have also filled in, accomplished with just 1000 FUT grafts.
