Hi doctors. I previously had FUE done (500 double hair grafts taken) and it has left some gaps in my donor area. I know SMP is an option, but it’s not one I want. I cut my hair very short, and those gaps are very obvious when hair starts growing out. Now I know beard is a good option for scars because it grows long. But I don’t have enough beard hair. Would leg and nape hair be suitable since I’m only looking to the hair on the back and sides very short (0 or 1 guard) thanks.

Answer: If you have FUE scarring and want to hide it with hair with another FUE harvested from your neck, what will you do
It is best to ask your surgeon about post operative care as each doctor has their unique regimen. Percocet requires a hand written prescription. It is up to the doctor's discretion on what medications are prescribed.
Photos cannot assess if you would be a candidate for surgery. Usually this involves seeing a doctor in person so you can better understand realistic goals and expectations. You need to also inform the doctor how low you want the hairline.
