    Let me try to answer both questions at once!

    Partial Follicular unit extraction initially sounded promising but the buzz has worn off for lack of evidence and reproducibility. It may still be possible (I hope) but we need more information.

    If a graft is transected, a reputable surgeon would evaluate the level of transection and then place what he/she thought had a chance to grow. Tissue that has no chance of growing should be discarded since it will have negative medical consequences if planted under the skin and just left there.

    Hopefully Dr. Bernstein can fill us in some time this year on how his testing of longitudinal transection is going. I really have no idea how it's going.
