Transection rates higher with FUE vs. FUT?
Hi I'm just curious if any of the clinics who perform FUE regularly could help to answer this question. I've heard that FUE could yield up to 20% transected/damaged FU, whereas FUT typically has like 1-2%?
This is mainly due to the estimated angle of entry when using the extraction tool vs. the microscopic dissection in strip method.
Is this accurate or have clinics been able to master the extraction method to reduce the risk of damaging FU's?
Thanks for your help, I'm still torn between choosing FUE vs FUT.

All other factors being equal, meaning, competent staff and state of the art equipment, strip continues to produce the highest and best yields over FUE.
