Technical problems with FUT/Strip don’t fully help patients
• Technique depends on scalp elasticity, which limits the number of sessions in Strip or FUT• Strip can have a huge transection rate if not performed properly
• Strip puts patient at high risk of infection, bleeding and other side effects
• Strip has a poor yield if not performed properly
• Poor FUT technique leads to a "doll hair” appearance
• Most often 4,000-5,000 grafts is the limit for strip technique
Benefits of FUE IM treatment
• Patient may be treated multiple times• Transection rate is very low (usually 1-3%, seldom as high as 10%)
• Patient is not put at any risk
• Yield is very high when done properly
• Natural-looking results because of anatomically correct graft sizes
• Up to 8,000 grafts may be harvested without significant changes to the donor area

With a hair transplantation operation scheduled in Stockholm, Sweden on April 20th, he had to find a quick solution for the problem. Not being a person to sit around and wait as airports continued to close all over Europe, he decided to drive to his patient.
The 3.850 km. drive accross Europe took him two and a half days to complete. But he made it to Stockholm on the day of the scheduled operation. If you want to read the whole story of this dash accross Europe, a blog is posted here
Happy reading!
