Can hair be transplanted into permanent acne scars on the neck?

latigo
As you know, hair does not grow in these acne scars. I have so many of them that even with significant "scruff" they still show. I'd like tiny hairs in there to blend in with my 5 o'clock shadow or with slight beard growth. The hairs themselves wouldn't even have to grow. They'd just have to camouflage the scars. They can be tiny hairs, like the size of beard stubble even after you just shaved hours prior.
