    Default Better with the pencil ? (FUE HT)

    I have been talking to 2 different HT surgeons about having a full FUE HT .

    I have been told they are using slightly different procedures for inserting the hairs in the recipient area .

    From what i understand the first one is making slits for the new hairs and inserts them into these channels .

    The 2nd surgeon however is using a pen with the new hair already placed in and strikes the recipient area with this . So the channel for the new hair is made at the same time as its inserted in its place .
    I have been told this is done to allow the surgeon to be able to pack hairs denser and also causes less of a scarring and faster healing in the recipient area because the holes are smaller and the planted hair acts as a plug to stop loss of blood ?

    Is there anything wrong with the above statements ?
