Follicular unit excision (FUE) is an increasingly popular hair restoration technique. In many instances, it surpasses linear strip excision (LSE) surgery in terms of number of procedures and clinics dedicated to performing FUE. The rise in popularity relates primarily to a somewhat misguided perception that FUE produces less evidence of a surgical procedure having been performed. This is based on the fact that a linear scar is avoided. The procedure is easier to learn and "less invasive" as compared to LSE harvesting and requires less staff and capital expense. The FUE procedure is aggressively marketed often as "scarless surgery." This false statement, along with the ease of starting an FUE practice, has resulted in various ethical issues related to evaluation, methodology, and business practices. In this chapter, we discuss the ethical issues surrounding FUE hair restoration surgery and the examination of the mathematics of donor management as it relates to the ethical management of the FUE patient.
