Question:
Can FUT and FUE techniques be combined during one surgery?

Answer:
Yes. FUT (follicular unit transplantation) and FUE (Follicular Unit Excision) can be combined and be performed on the patient during the same surgery.

Often if a patient would like additional grafts and the doctor does not feel comfortable taking out any larger of a donor strip, they can offer FUE to obtain several hundred additional follicular unit grafts.
