What Does a Hair Transplant Donor Scar Look Like? (with Photos)

How the donor area exactly look after HT ? I have no idea…does it look very ugly and scary ? My doc is not exploring it completely….plz help me sir.

If your doctor does not answer this question for you by showing you patients so that you can examine the donor scar yourself, then go to another doctor who will do this for you. You should be frightened if you are not getting good answers.

Take a look at the two sets of photos below. These patients (who both had Follicular Unit Transplantation) consecutively came into the office for a routine follow-up visit. All scars were easily covered by the combed hair and to see the scar, a comb had to lift up the hair. Click the photos to see full-size.
