How many times can FUE be performed?

Asked By:dave975 in Glen Allen, VA

26 with thinning cowlick on the vertex. Have the "V" in front. Norwood 2 at this point, but I've also noticed that the point of my widow's peak has shrunken significantly over past several months. I recognize the risks of getting this done prematurely - I don't yet know how bad my ultimate loss will be, some of the yet-harvestable hairs on the back/sides might be destined for MPB, etc. What are your thoughts on whether getting multiple FUEs (say in the order of 6-7) is feasible or advisable?
