Does "pitting" get better after hair transplant? (Photo)

August 28, 2021
Asked By:Nori435 in Boston, Massachusetts

I got a FUT hair transplant about 6 months ago. I've noticed the front hairline has these tiny holes, and in some parts worse than others. It looks really bad if I pull the hair back gently. I think it's pitting and curious if that gets better or softens at all over time. I'd like to eventually wear my hair back but worried now about the holes on my head. I think it looks obvious and from what I see online, only fixable with another procedure which I want to avoid.
