What is your opinion on a combined FUT + FUE surgery to maximize the number of grafts harvested?

Asked By:navid.amini in Los Angeles, California

I am considering doing a combined FUT+FUE to achieve additional grafts. I noticed that the combined FUT+FUE procedure in one long session is more common in Turkey and India than it is in the US. What are the downsides of doing this combined procedure? A doctor in another forum mentioned the 'disruption of the blood supply' as a potential problem with the combined FUT+FUE procedure, which I could not quite understand. I would appreciate the input from those who advocate this procedure and those who do not.
