Would laser hair removal on a hairline leave scars?

Hello all,

I would like to push my transplanted hairline up about 1cm as I feel it is too low. I'd like to do it with laser or electrolysis, I know it's wasting the grafts but I don't want lots of little white dots if they're removed by FUE.

My question is, would this leave scars or redness? My implantations were done with a Choi Pen (DHI).

Can anyone link me to a case where someone had their hairline moved up without any visible scarring?

Or can anyone recommend me a doctor in Europe who has successfully moved up a hairline?

Thanks,

K

No laser Would not leave scars. But laser isn’t very precise and would take multiple sessions. Also it won’t work on grey hair. Electrolysis is another option of course.

in my opinion you shouldn’t rule out removing via FUE. Here’s a reference case - 

 

As with this case I think Feriduni is a great option.

Thanks so much I might have to pay him a visit when this Corona thing blows over!

I've heard fraxel laser surgery is the best. Why would you want to laser the hairs off, you could camoflauge the hairs with another surgery. Do you mind posting some pics?

Hi Melvin,

I don't really mind how they're removed I just want them to go without any scarring because I feel it's too low. I will make a thread soon with all of my pics so far.

If you're only trying to remove a few hairs in the corners then FUEing them out may work best as any scars will probably not be noticed. If you're trying to raise the entire hairline then I FUEing them may leave you with scars in the front which you don't want.
