I am going to get hair transplants to lower my hairline (4000grafts) and I plan to have a Brazilian Butt Lift 7days after.Would this be safe? Are there any issues with anesthetic in a short period of time? A doctor (who is not my PS) suggested that I get the BBL first then do the hair 7days later but wouldnt this affect my fat grafting results as I am not meant to sit for three weeks? I understand for the transplant procedure I would have to lie on the operating bed for about 7hrs/more! Thanks

Unfortunately there is a great deal of variation in the scar after a hair transplant. I have some patients whose hair is only half that length and the scar is not visible. In others it may take a little more length to cover the scar.
This is the curse of the old hair transplant. Sometimes steroid injections work. If not, removing the ridge is possible in the hands of a good surgeon.
