Had FUE grafts 5000; would like to fill them out, so as to blend in with the rest of the sides of my head. I'd also like to be able to do a skin fade again, perhaps at grade 0 to grade 2. My question is can this be effectively done, and would the SMP only work if the hair is short on the side. If the hair is longer on side would it still look covered. Please can you see my photos and advise. No generic answers please.
