My Hair Transplant Story: Why I Chose FUT Over FUE (And Have Zero Regrets)

More about Hair Transplant

Hi, my name is Franz. I’m an accountant in Springfield, Massachusetts, and I had an FUT hair transplant in March 2019. 

Six years later, the results are still holding up, and that’s why I’m sharing my story.

Many people I’ve spoken with chose FUE and were disappointed within months. I chose FUT because it focuses on the "safe donor zone," ensuring stronger, lasting grafts. I did a year of research and ultimately flew to Fort Lauderdale to work with Dr. Brett Bolton. From consultation to surgery, the experience was professional and reassuring.

The procedure was painless, the scar is invisible today, and my results are completely natural. I believe FUT is underrated—while it’s more invasive than FUE, it offers better long-term density and durability.

If you're considering a transplant, don’t just follow trends. Do your homework. FUT changed my life, and I have no regrets.

Kind regards,

Franz
