    Default FUE into hair transplant scar by Dr. Lindsey

    Here's a nice fellow who had a low yield strip case on the west coast. In addition to not getting much hair...he did get a noticable scar. I attempted to get him to let us cut out his scar and get some hair...but his boss, or wife, said just cut the scar out. We did this and got about 50% improvement...which, if you've seen my scar videos...is about what we average on scar excision and trichophytic closures. Sometimes we get 90% out and sometimes we don't get any improvement at all, but on average I get about 50% improvement.

    Since he has to wear a really tight hairstyle, he needed a bit more camouflage to that linear scar, so we did a few hundred FUE's. ALL that really does is keep the viewer's eyes from seeing a straight white line. He looks good, and is currently overseas so I hope to get 18 month followups in 2019.
