Does this strip scar look ok ?

Its been 7 months and one week.

 

There are other areas of the scar that look better where more hair has grown through.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

So you had a try-closure technique done from your FUHT procedure? If so, give it a full year to see if you get any more hair growing through it. The scar itself looks very clean IMHO.

 

I would also not recommend a revision but rather you could have some FUE grafts placed into it if you want to wear your hair much shorter such as a buzzed cut.

 

Congrats on your recent procedure....;)

For some reason the old wives tale of Fue and Feller never seems to die, perhaps maybe because at one time he was the only one in N. America performing FUE (he did some amazing FUT results previously including on some veteran posters here).

 

At $10 graft for FUE you can certainly find better options out there for Fue scar repair, especially considering the doc is already retired.. (woops seems he's still active)

Just wanted to clarify a rumor here -- without becoming involved in the discussion -- because I've now seen it posted twice on the forums:

 

Dr. Feller is definitely not retired.

Dr. Blake Bloxham is recommended by the Hair Transplant Network.

IMHO, Dr. Feller is not against FUE.

 

Reading many of his posts in the various hair loss communities, he was distinguishing between some of the drawbacks of FUE as compared to FUHT methods. Obviously either method requires experience and skill.

 

His contributions are more educational and informational and what I found to be very helpful. The same goes for Dr. Blake...;)

 

Both methods have their place. FUE is not for everyone and neither is FUHT.
