Can I get SMP to cover up FUE scars? (photo)

May 7, 2019
Asked By:misterpete in England, United Kingdom

So I had 5400 FUE grafts done over two sessions which I was really happy with. However, as you can imagine the donor area has obviously been heavily harvested! I saw on this website that you can have SMP to darken scars, but I'm worried that if SMP is performed , it would be difficult for a doctor to harvest more grafts in future should I require further work, because they may not be able to distinguish between SMP spots or hair follicles. Please could you advise
