I was wondering does the scar from fut ever become flat with your head or will there always be that slight bulge?
Answer: FUT scar On average, it can take from 6 months to a year for scars to fully mature. If you are having a slightly raised scar after an FUT, it is best to see your surgeon as measures can be taken to help flatten the scar.

Answer: Scar A scar from hair transplant should always ideally heal in a flat manner. It may start off bumpy but should improve over the next year. For scars that are still bumpy or hypertrophic or not changing after several months, you may require steroid injections to flatten the scar or a scar revision to improve the scar and make it less noticeable. Hope this helps!Johnson C. Lee, MD Board-Certified Plastic Surgeon

Answer: FUT Scar healing In general it can take around 6 months for a FUT scar to heal. From the sutures or staples, the size of the strip including how wide and the length as well as taking into account the skin laxity. When healed the scar should be flush with the surrounding hair, not raised.
