I know its not common to use hairs from pubic area. but for a patchy beard with same characteristics, can a surgeon take from this area without difficulties ? I heard follicule in pubic area are difficult to extract because they are deep in the skin, what is your opinion ? i heard also successfull transplantation with body hair is lower than by using hair from head. As body hair are thicker why they are not stronger ?
