Answer: Sorry to disappoint you, but you will always have a scar if you shave even with NeoGraft or any FUE Sorry to disappoint you, but you will always have a scar if you shave even with NeoGraft or any FUE. If you shave your head thousands of white dots scars will show. You will need to grow out your hair a bit so hide the patchy scar.

Answer: FUE hair restoration does leave a scar The Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) method in hair restoration does leave a scar. So if you were told that you would not have a scar, unfortunately, you were mislead. The FUE method of extracting hair uses a small, round scalpel, or punch blade, varying in sizes most commonly around a 0.9 mm to 1.1 mm size. Depending upon the size of the punch, a round scar about that size will also result. The strip method of hair restoration is when an incision is made in the scalp and a strip of scalp is removed. The area is sutured afterwards and the sutures either dissolve or are removed about a week later. The result is a linear scar that most of the time is easily covered with hair.There is a misconception that FUE is scarless surgery. There is no such thing as scarless surgery.
