Answer: FUE punch Size of the punch does not always correlate with post procedure scarring. In some patients, scarring can occur with smaller sizes or larger sizes. The scarring that occurs is typically hypopigmentation. For patients concerned about hypopigmentation, especially with shorter hair styles the use of scalp micropigmentation can be helpful.

Answer: Yes that works While FUE hair transplants create no linear scar there is indeed a risk of seeing minor barely noticeable circular scars in the harvested area. This varies from patient to patient as each individual heals differently. the punches we use vary from 09.mm to 1.0mm on all of our patients whether them being white caucasian or asian. Discuss with your surgeon the risk of "scarring". Also, unless you wear your hair extremely short (buzzed down to 0) you and others won't notice anything.

Answer: Punch size A punch size of .09 to 1mm should be fine as long as the area is not over-harvested. Some patients will show more noticeable scarring then others. It is important to address these concerns with the doctor before you proceed with the transplant.
