    did you get a FUE transplant? If not, how is the scar in the back of your head?

    No, the surgery was a FUT. The clinic that I went to only performs FUT surgery. The scar in the back is healing well, I can trim with hair down to a #3 guard and the scar can barely be seen. However there is some areas where the scar has stretched..

    Sorry, I meant FUT. The results are looking good in pics, but the hairline is lacking some real density when seen in person... we'll see what the coming months bring..

    Stay patient. The hairline can see continued improvement for several months. Depending on your desired density you could always do a little touch-up in necessary. Also, avoid excessive flexion of the neck for up to six months post-op. This can put additional strain on the donor area and can still have an effect on the final scar.
