Asked By:rutger24 in Amsterdam, Noord-Holland, Nederland
I had a FUE transplant 5 years ago, with no satisfying result. A lot of grafts did not take, with low density as a result. I thinking about a second hair transplant with a more reputable clinic to add density to my hairline. Is a second hair transplant more challenging due to scar tissue (not visible by the eye in my case) in the recipient area? Is there bigger chance a lot of grafts will fail, this time caused by scar tissue from the previous transplant? Photo from my recipient 5 years ago.
