Answer: Effect of Scalp Rugae on HT Thank you for the question. Fortunately, these irregularities or ridges on the scalp do not impact the transplant process, hair growth, or final result. Of course, as your hair continues to thin, the ridges will become more and more visible. So, a permanent solution like a hair transplant where the hair will never fall out over your lifetime is perfect for you.

Answer: Ridges on the scalp No, you can have an FUE as these ridges should not impact this procedure as a surgeon who knows how to manage the surgical instruments should be able to negotiate these ridges; however, I am concerned that what your picture shows is thinning, not balding. I wonder if Scalp Micropigmentation might not be a better option for you, see below
