I had a hair transplant four years ago of roughly 3000 grafts - 1500 grafts for each temple. The growth was poor, and I'm now left with scaring in both temples that mostly visible under certain lighting conditions (overhead lighting, fluorescent light etc.). Can you recommend the best type of laser to treat this type of scaring?

You reported that your skin is not smooth where
you had your grafts placed. There are many reasons for this which are
technical, but these may or may not apply to your surgery. Pitting or
cobblestonning is the result of grafts that are not placed at skin level so if
they are placed too deep,...
We have done hundreds of such patients over the past 24 years and the sideburns look great. The key to good sideburns is the use of one hair grafts on the outer border and possibly throughout the sideburn area
