Here is the thing guys. I had a HT, it was not good for me, so i wanna know if i can use laser to kill the grafts and maybe do some peeling to cover the scars... Witch are not big ones.
Is this a possibility? I'm very hopeful and i'll go with the best dermatologist out here to see what i can do. Maybe only with plastic surgery??
I really don't want to go trough another HT cause it was very bad and my doctor was stupid cause he lowered my hairline without me asking for it, and i was kinda doped when he showed me so...

Focus on the picture plz! Thx guys!

PS: The Ht is Shaved, it's in the marked place.
And of course, looks much worse live.

laser isnt really acurate enough, takes many sessions and will also kill natural hairs that are near by.

You are much better off getting the hair surgically reomved via fue and put back into the scar/scars. I'm in the same situation although mine dont look too bad, just misangled. I'm getting mine fue'd out and put back into the scar then I'm having my hairline re-done.


I looked into laser a lot and it wont address any scars, just remove hairs, where as fue should address the scarring much better.

But i'm not going to put more hairs on the place i took them off.

And punch out does leave scars doesn't it?

And yes, my main worry is with the accuracy, but i think i can but some protection like a hat on the natural hairline?

I disagree. With dark hair like yours and fairly light skin, hair removal lasers should do an excellent job in getting rid of hair wherever you have it, transplanted or not. It will take several sessions but it should work and work well.

It will not likely help any scarring, that needs either a different ablative laser, or surgery.

Frankly I couldn't tell what you are trying to accomplish from that picture, but if you want hair to go away, I have no reason to think that a laser can't significanly help you. Just see someone competent in your area.

Didnt say laser wouldnt remove the hairs.......

My main point was that it wont address the scars.

Aska, have you inquired with anyone about removing your grafts via fue? How many grafts are you wanting to remove? Also please update us when you have costs narrowed down and which route you are going. Im sure there are quite a few guys that are curious just in case they need to go down this path.

Thanks

remember even with fue you can get hypopigmented scars. When you do a number so close together in the hairline, you risk visible scars. Laser hair removal can work. The closer you go to the existing hairline, there can be laser light scatter inthe dermis affecting the normal hairs. It is possible with it's risks and benefits. The picture I saw was not the most clear, but a personal consultation would certainly help dilineate things better. Fractiobnal co2 lasers like the deep FX have been used to minimize and treat different types of scars. Can't say I would recommend it without a clinical exam. Good luck. Keep us advised.
