I need to do something as I'm Norwood 5/6, but as I only have windows in work of 3 weeks max, I am looking at Fue. Even 3 weeks might leave me with redness, but hopefully I can use concealer by then. A Strip would mean more down time, which I don't have.
I am thinking that I could start with a 3-4,000 graft Fue, to get back the front third and some on top. I could then either stick with that, or at a later date if I feel the need and have a bigger window, I could go for a Strip.
Would this be a silly idea? I know the strip area would be depleted by then and remaining potential grafts possibly damaged, but has this often been done before or is it not recommended?
I know Strip would provide more grafts, with less donor healing involved, but its the waiting for that scar to get hidden thats the problem.
