    Default Laser resurfacing to remove graft 'cobblestones'

    First, I hope this post won't be unwelcome here, as my goal is to more or less undo the effects of a hair transplant done over twenty years ago.

    I have a large bald area, and a relatively small 'donor site' area. The result: sparse growth in front, and a daily routine of combing over hair over the bald area in back, with plenty of hair spray.

    I'm done! I want to just be bald.

    Of course, I could just shave the transplanted area -- but if I do, I'm gonna look pretty funny, as it's "cobblestoned" from the effect of the grafts/plugs put in.

    About nine years ago, a dermatologist told me that this area could be smoothed, through surgical treatment. I *think* this is laser resurfacing, but am not sure. And, unfortunately, he doesn't do the treatment anymore.

    Can anyone offer any advice?

    A friend with a smaller bald area had a hair transplant done, with excellent results. But my bald area is quite big.
