My situation: I'm around NW2 or 3ish. The temples on my hairline are looking thin.
The reasons for why I wanted FUT are because:
I contact H&W and was quoted for 1800 - 2000 graft around my hairline. I specifically asked if we could do an FUT and was told:
"Dr Hasson does not perform FUT surgeries for hairline work , sorry.
He recommends FUE in order to dense pack the grafts closer together for a solid hairline look.
Dr Wong does perform FUT’s of any type however he is conservative with his approach and may not recommend surgery for you as your hairline appears normal for your age."

The reasons for why I wanted FUT are because:
- I'm 26... it is likely I'd need another procedure down the line in my mid-30's or early 40's. I'd rather be conservative on grafts with an FUT instead of FUE.

- Scarring... I don't really mind the FUT scar. I keep my hair around 3 " on my sides anyways.

Questions
- Do you think I should go for FUE or FUT? (I know there's no images, but based on the quote of 2000 grafts and my age).
- Do you think FUE allows one to pack the hairline more "densely"?
- What are your thought on the Youtube videos I linked?
