My donor area was over harvested. Can the donor area be filled in with beard hair?

Asked By:bigben2010 in Chicago, IL

I went ack to the doctor because I cut my hair really short and noticed the donor over harvested. He said he can fill it in with beard hair. I rather use body hair instead of beard hair. Will body hair work to fill in the over harvested donor? I only had 1000 graft extracted and it a small area.
