Hello,

Do you think my FUT scar is OK at 4 week, in particular with regard to staples ? Staples are very visible no is it normal ?

Thanks a lot !

That donor closure looks very good. If it stays like this I think you’ll struggle to find it once the area is fully healed. The redness you see is normal. The red marks where the staples were should start to fade away. Where did you end up going for your hair transplant and how many grafts did you get?

Thanks you I was a little scared about staples red marks.

I got 6500 hairs in France with a doctor in Paris but I am not sure the work will be correct because I had a lot of 5 hairs grafts so he used a lot of them and my ratio is around 5 hair/grafts ! He say all will be ok and he done that because of my hair characteristics but I hope the result will not be too catastrophic ... Everybody here got about 2 ratio... it's strange and worry me a little.

Anyway if I can get a good scar it is a good point. Now I have just to wait and see what will happen...

That is a huge surgery. I’d love to see your pictures and hear about the surgery.
Any chance you could document your journey on here?

To be honest I am very afraid to get a lot of comments which will blame the ratio of 5 and tell me that I've been fooled...
I am even ashamed to not have been enought careful about this...

No one is going to blame you. If you never received the number of grafts you were told, then it’s the doctor/clinic at fault.

Scar looks good
U might have shockloss of hair around it but that will grow back in time
Try not to worry and just relax and heal
