Hi. I am wanting a 2nd HT to improve the top area of my head & to touch up the hairline. I have had an email consultation from a reputable surgeon & they have advised that they cannot carry out the procedure because there is a risk that they will damage the grafts implanted from my first surgery. I am trying to be proactive & I was always under the impression that the grafts were permanent & a skilled surgeon could work around them. I would appreciate some advice on the matter?

Answer: You need more close up advice You should check with a local hair transplant dr. to find out if there are still miniaturized hairs in between your transplants.If yes, you want to concentrate on rejuvenation of these weak hair follicles.This will give you 2 benefits:1. You will add density to the area without a hair transplant2. You will be able to stop progressive hair lossIn our practice we use a combination of treatments to re-activate weak hair follicles with great success.You can find some examples on my account on realself.Ps: it is surely possible to work in between existing hair follicles, provided you have the head shaven to about 1 mm. An experienced hair transplantation physician should not have any problems placing in between existing hair follicles since high magnification is used.

Answer: Second FUE Surgery The restrictions on a second FUE surgery is related to a depletion of the donor area and not the damage to previous grafts in the recipient area.
