The recipient area in a hair transplant can have some hair, it is not a must to shave it. The skill and experience of your hair transplant doctor becomes essential here.
Health Tips
Young people should opt for FUT or strip method as it helps to preserve a large part of the precious donor area which might be helpful in case you need a second transplant after some years.
