Any cut on your skin will leave a scar. FUE will definitely leave a visible scar if you shave your head.
I assume you had an FUE and probably not more than 500 or so grafts.If these were widely distributed throughout the donor area it should be difficult to detect with the head shaved.Keep in mind though that each graft harvest site can leave a tiny white circular scar.
If you completely shave, I would do FUE over FUT (strip). Reason being its much less obvious than a linear scar. I also find that robotic FUE leave less of a scaring risk over manual FUE because of the delicate blunt dissection. Also, if you're really concerned, you can try scalp micro-pigmentation to the donor area to mask the FUE marks. You can similarly try this with a linear FUT scar however it is much less noticeable again with FUE. Good luck. Dr. Rome

The scars left from an FUE transplant are less then 1mm and therefore are barely noticeable if done properly. As long as they are spread out and an area is not over-harvested, which should not be a problem with an eyebrow transplant.
It can take up to 6 months to a year for you to notice any regrowth and the final stage of hair growth after a hair transplantation. I'd advise to voice your concerns with the surgeon who placed the grafts and get their opinion. Best,Dr. Anil Shah, MD FACS
This is normal and expected. It will take 7-10 days for everything to be completely healed but at 4 days it is already looking pretty good.
You should be okay. It happens, There is not a chance that Aquaphor will effect or damage the growth but it does helps prevent crusting, while allowing the grafts to heal appropriately by keeping the hair follicles hydrated. I recommend my patients to clean with a q-tip by gently rolling aro...
