Only those patients were included who had a previous strip harvest surgery (FUT) and opted for Follicular Unit Excision\/Extraction (FUE) procedure. In all the patients, the donor hairs were trimmed to about 1\u20102\u00a0mm length. The width of the scar, the hair density above and below the scar, and hair angles above and below the scar were measured. All the patients underwent FUE procedure using 0.9\u00a0mm serrated punch. Twenty attempts were made above and below the scar (about 0.5\u00a0cm), and the total number of hair and transections was measured. All the data were analyzed statistically.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Ten patients were included. The average width of the scar was 2.47 mm.

The average hair count was found to be 49.8 hairs above the scar and 47.2 hairs above the scar (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic> &lt; .05).
