Does FUE from the neck area leave scars on light skin?

April 20, 2018
Asked By:chuti in Bakersfield, CA

As planned with a hair specialist, i have 800 fu available on my underbeard/neck area. The goal is to use them to fill up patchy beard. Doctor said there is a risk of small hypopigmented scars but as im really white light skin is it less noticeable ? Also why hypopigmented scar instead of hyperpigmented scar ? Thanks for your help

Answer: Neck hair is not considered a good donor area because it is not considered a "permanent zone" and it also leaves scars.
