BE CAREFUL!!: Unlike the minimally-invasive no-scalpel/no-stitch harvesting with NeoGraft FUE procedures, a linear or strip harvest involves a scalpel incision as well as staples or stitches in the donor area. To avoid a widened scar, avoid you must avoid putting ANY tension on that healing area. For some patients who are prone to wide scars, this may mean no heavy workouts for months, in order to "be safe."
