Regular Member jjalay Posted December 31, 2023 Regular Member Share Posted December 31, 2023 It looks overharvested and as they used a bigger punch. Where did you had this done? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regular Member DavidSheer Posted January 1 Regular Member Share Posted January 1 Shame you’re experiencing this. It may improve as somehow the hairs can shock and they grow back. Which clinic completed this? Longer hair may be better for now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the best. of course that all surgery will leave scar but my scalp right now not looking normal and the scares are really clear to the eye. the question is if in success hairtransplant at good surgery if this is what i should except? or the surgey failed in the work at my donor area.

Valued Contributor A_4_Archan Posted January 1 Valued Contributor Share Posted January 1 From your pictures it seems that they went outside the safe donor zone for extraction But this scars(white dots) you are seeing is normal...everyone get such tiny dot like scars and how good or bad one would scar depends on things like individual's own physiology and a part of doctor's skill...it can subside with time...

Your scalp looks fairly normal after an FUE with such a short buzzcut. It's possible the scarring could have been minimised with smaller punches or more homogenous extraction, but given we don't know what punches were used, which surgeon did the work or how well concealed the extractions are with longer hair, we can only speculate on that. You may also just be someone that scars a little more visibly than others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Al - Moderator Posted January 2 Moderators Share Posted January 2 At 2.5 months you could have some shock loss of hairs surrounding the punches which could make the punch size seem larger than it was. If that's the case (I'm not saying it is, but it's a possibility) then it will improve somewhat over the next few months.
