Scar Repair from 1991 HT

[dmeyer8]

I received two surgeries. one in 1991 (when I was 24) from the Bosley Group and one in 1992 from Dominic Brandy in Pittsburgh. I was young and insecure and very trusting. I went into Bosley to get information and they pressured me to get surgery on the spot. Offered to pay for the airline ticket and discount the price if I did it on the spot. I caved in to the pressure and went for it. Needless to say the results were not that great but I thought it was better than having a receding hairline. After many years (I am 52 now) I lost more hair and the transplant is now more noticeable. I was really too young to do it in the first place. I would like to shave my head but the scar from the donor site is very visible. I don't believe I am a good candidate for more transplants. Now that I am older I don't mind being bald. I would like to pull the transplanted hairs (some are plugs some are small hairs (pitting in the skin because they were place too deep) and use them to camoflage the scar. Has any one done this? I am thinking to go to New York and see Dr. Wolfeld from the Bernstein Group. I cannot have the tranplants because they look pitted.
