40, male, 18 stone , 6ft 3, failed or poor FUE job December 2020?

January 20, 2022
Asked By:skindog80 in England, United Kingdom

I’m 40, male, 18 stone , 6ft 3 , average fitness with a physical job. Had my fue Dec 2020 and I’m not happy with the result so I’ve gone back to the surgeon and they’ve done another. I’m worried the same thing will happen. Can you tell me if the first looks like a failure or poor surgery. Photos attached. Everything went well with the first op, no health issues.

Do I have enough donor hair for a successful FUE procedure? If so, how many grafts should I go for? (photos)
Roberto Guerrero Zazueta, MD says:

I reviewed your photos and the donor area appears pretty sparse. I would suggest trying to do maybe around 600-700 to start.
