Considering a Hair Transplant and May Want to Shave My Head. Is FUE Scarless? (from Reddit)
The FUE is not scarless as it will produce some small, punctated scars. If the surgeon uses a small punch instrument, the scars will be small, but with a razor shaved head, the scars will show. We have performed SMP for patients with FUE or strip scars. Many of these people can now shave their head. I try to tell my patients that hair transplants don’t usually give back your original density, so a longer hairstyle works better than a shorter hairstyle since it will not reveal the lower density. To look at some patients who shaved their head with FUE and other scars, see here: https://scalpmicropigmentation.com/scar-covering/
