I had 4 hair transplants and the last doctor went to far down and made an unnatural pattern, I want to know if the hair can be removed by the FUE technique and put in a different place withot leaving a noticeable mark or scars in my forehead? Witch Doctor do this kind of procedure and waht other Doctors or people recommend?
Answer: Repositioning of Transplanted Hair Your previously transplanted hair can absolutely be punched out and removed via FUE and placed somewhere else. This is something I commonly do in my practice to fix poorly designed hairlines. It is important to consider the size of grafts used in the hairline as the bigger the grafts the bigger the punch size needed and this can lead to scarring. I like to use a 0.7mm punch to remove these grafts if possible as I have found with this small size the scarring is very minimal. Another option to consider is laser hair removal. In cases where I cannot remove the grafts I will treat the patient with 4-6 sessions of laser to remove the hair and then fix the hairline. Unfortunately with this method you lose the hairs instead of being able to reposition them however it leaves you with no scarring.

Answer: Can Transplanted Hair Be Removed and Repositioned? Well yes this can be accomplished. We here in Tijuana have performed reverse FUE for many patients who had unnatural hairlines from inexperienced clinics. Sometimes it takes multiple extractions to get it completely removed. We haven't seen appreciable scarring either. Give us a call so we can evaluate your situation.

Answer: Remove and Reposition Hair Grafts with FUE Transplant This quite challenging procedure is one that I perform on a rather regular basis- called FUE graft extraction, in which the removed grafts can be replanted, and the tiny holes where the grafts were removed typically heal up within 3 to 5 days.
