Hair transplant, donor area over harvested, what's the best option? (photos)

Asked By:gllp

I got a hair transplant in Turkey a few year ago, and they completely over harvested my donor area. Some have mentioned smp tattoo , but I'm not sure how that will look as my hair changes in length. Will SMP even work in this situation, or make it look even more awkward? What if I just did the strip FUT method at this point and then went in again to cover the scar with fue method ? Thoughts ? Maybe other solutions?
