Asked By:jimithu9 in Canada, KY

Can head be shaved after Fue hair transplant. I have seen a picture posted on internet someone showed a shaved head with FUE and it had visible marks on recipient and donor area both. It was few years back. Has there been any advancement in technology that no visible marks are detected after shaving head.Thanks
