Is this possible to be done?
Take with FUE already transplanted hair and move it to other area in head?

Yes, transplanted hair can be taken by FUE and re-transplanted to another location on the scalp.
Remember there is likely to some scarring following the FUE.

You could yes, people do but you have to bear in mind that there is a risk of scarring.... no matter what the doctor tells you - he/she can't guarantee there won't be any. (I say that because some people are led to believe FUE wont leave a mark)

You dont get white dot scarring with fue repairs if stitches are done, to make the holes heal as slits instead of holes.

Sparky, I'm not sure I understand what you are saying... but if you are suggesting that there is a procedure for removing hair to be transplanted - that guarantees there won't be scarring, then I'm sorry - but you are wrong.

Where did I say that?? I said that they fue them out then draw stitches across them minimizing the hole.

Didnt say anywhere that you wont get a scar, a paper cut will cause a scar.

Hey Sparky, sorry if it came a cross that I was having a go at you, that wasn't my intention.

In all fairness you didn't say:

If you had, I wouldn't have posted my last reply.

So, yeah... the above being the case Omar77 - keep in mind that there will always be a risk of scarring, which has to be taking in to consideration when removing hair from the hairline.

No I didnt say that but I did say, making them heals as slits rather than holes, so you definatly would not get white dot scarring, you would get the same sort of scar as gently piercing the skin with a scalpel, hardley visible to the human eye.

I've seen someone who had this done and I couldnt see any scarring.
