Close FUE Scars With Sutures?
Dr.Rassman/Dr.Pak,
Would FUE donor-area wounds closed by suture allow for relatively scar-free surgery, or would the procedure be simply too impractical and/or prohibitively expensive to carry out?
Thank you.
It would be prohibitively expensive and time consuming. Many people with densities of 2 hair/mm square or better will not scar significantly if the punch that the surgeon uses is 1mm or less. Some surgeons use larger punches and if the person has a low donor density, the scars will be evident as these two things are combined.
