"There are two methods now of harvesting hair from the donor area at the back and the sides. One is called FUE and the other is called FUT. In the FUT process, there's a little strip taken from the back and sides. The hair is kept long, and if the patient has hair already in that area, they can go back to work two or three days later and nobody will see anything. With the FUE process, the standard way of harvesting the hair is to shave the entire head. So that patient would need to take two weeks off work afterwards to allow some hair growth to hide the little tiny marks that are left in the donor region."
