I had a Failed FUE. Should I try BHT from my beard or other donor area? Or could FUT work?

b2310
Im 27. Had 2355 grafts in my frontal hairline done last sept 2017 by a reputed doctor. Transplant result is very poor; less than 100 hairs grew. (used the back of my scalp as donor) One of the issues: My Sides and Back are sensitive! Anywhere on my sides and back if the barber rubs too hard with the clippers, I tend to lose hair in that area. This makes me feel that my scalp is not a good donor source. Is using beard donor a better option in my case? Body Hair? I doubt FUT miraculously works?
