Any hair removal may leave permanent scarring.  The scarring may not be an issue overall.  It is best to discuss your risk with the person that will be performing the procedure.

Yes , it may happen . Especially electrolysis type hair removal may cause problem. But it would be better to see an experienced hair surgeon and have an examination to fix the problem that make you bother .  If you complain about density of beard , it may increased with a second op .

Hello in Turkey,Normally, laser hair removal or electrolysis do not leave scars.  However, hair grafting can leave small round marks/scars where the hair have been transplanted. In some people these marks are not visible, but in some people they can be visible close up or can be felt if you run your fingers along the skin.The best way to tell if the hair transplant left small marks/scars would be to shave your beard off completely, and after a day you should be able to see what your face will look like after laser/electrolysis, and whether there are visible small marks or not.Good

Removing a beard transplant the size you are discussing will probably leave scars in the recipient area if there is any suggestion of scars now. You also may develop 'white spots' from depigmentation of the skin
