Will new holes in my face heal after facial hair transplant surgery? (Photo)

September 19, 2014
Asked By:Patient0120 in Boca Raton, FL

I had facial hair transplant surgery just under 30 days ago. My chin area now has hundreds of holes that have not healed. I did not have any "prominent pores" prior to surgery. It is disfiguring because the holes are stretched and obvious. The rest of my face does not have the large pores to match. I am not concerned about redness or acne, those things will heal in time. Will these holes close and tighten to match the remainder of my skin? If no, what are my options for repair?
