Default ? about Dr. Feller

Dr. Feller is a very intelligent man.

If he is choosing not to do Body hair transplants, he probably has some reason behind it.

The reason I ask is because, well after all, he does FUE, and Body hair transplanting is just follicular extraction from the body.

Plus, from what I've read, beard hair grows just as well as scalp donor hair...so if Feller isn't doing it, there must be a good reason, because he is the most scientifically grounded transplant surgeon out there...He believes only in logic and transparency.


Thoughts ?!

I think your going to get quite a few different opinions regarding your comments. Yes, he's a very talented surgeon. However, "most scientifically grounded" is a strong statement and I'd need some statistics to back that comment up. Dr Feller does mostly FUT so that might answer your BHT question.....

BHT does have it's place in this industry. When used properly, it can play an important role in the overall process especially for repair patients. It is a tedious, time consuming process that many don't want to be bothered with.

I agree that there are many reasons why doctors may choose not to perform BHT. I do both FUT and FUE but have reserved BHT as a last resort and think that it only leads to good results in very few patients.

So, does beard hair grafting leave scars. I'm pretty sure it will leave tiny white dots, same as FUE on scalp, but some forums are saying it's a pretty scar free area that heals fast???
