Hi contactnipun,
It is very, very unusual to loose transplanted hair that has come from the 'safe' donor region, so barring serious illness you shouldnt loose your transplanted hair once it has grown out.
That said if you lost your transplanted hair, during say chemotherapy for example, you would have your recipient sites exposed for all to see. Again, if you went to a poor quality ht clinic, as I did for my 1st hair transplant then certainly, yes the graft sites, scarring and slits would be visible. But the fact that your posting on Dr Cole's forum shows that you have done a better job of researching this than I did first time around. A ht from dr Cole would be imperceptible even if the hairs for some reason did fall out.
I can say this with certainty as its normal for the transplanted hairs to fall out and then re-grow after a ht, and with Dr Cole's work you would never have known he had been there until the transplanted hairs grew back in.
Hope that helps!
