loveboxphMar 26, 2018
I had FUE 4 days ago ( march 22) and i feel like my hairline is too low, now only 5cm . I was hoping to have 5.5-6 cm.. Is there any way to reverse this now or in the future? Can i voluntarily pull out some without causing scars?

FUE can cause donor depletion and patchy donor appearance.  Sometimes aggressive FUE harvesting can cause shock loss.

FUE leaves round scars.  It may or may not be visible depending on how short you keep your hair.  Some people scar worse than others so 1mm guard may or may not show.

It is best to ask your surgeon about post operative care as each doctor has their unique regimen.  Only your doctor knows what was done during surgery so if there is abnormal pain your doctor can best address your situation.

There are risks to any surgery.  The success of surgery depends on the experience of the doctor and the medical group.
