Hello all.
Can I ask all those experienced travellers out there what the longterm aftermath of a HT is....? I will follow for now the recommended suggested list of "the very best surgeons" (Shapiro Mediical Group, Hassan & Wong, Dr. Konior, Dr. Gabel, True & Dorin, Dr. Feller, Dr. Lindsey, Dr. Arocha and Dr. Raha). However, assuming I was able to find a trully good and moral surgeon that completed a good and natural HT, what are the future ramifications for an existing person at scale 5 or 6 in relation to:
- How bad is the scar at the back of the head and I guess it remains forever?
Presumably the scar remains like a "smiley face" forever?
Presumably I could never cut my hair shorter at the back than say, 10mm?
- The reason I ask about whether I could cut/shave my hair again down to 2
or 3mm is if there was any issue with the grafted hair on top perhaps
deciding (in the long term) to stop growing, or some other unforseen or
unexpected occurrence. Or perhaps the hair at the back of my head
continuing to recede down - you know, almost down to a narrow band at
the back of the head - hence would look daft with having hair at front and
top of head then big gap down to the narrow band at the bottom of head?
- In addition to the scar from the donor area, are their longterm scars where
the transplanted hair is inserted and hence could similarly never again cut
short the transplanted hair if necessary?
Have not come accross any mention of the above topic on the very informative forum, hence if there is anyone out there with that knowledge, it would be hugely appreciated.
