FUE, short buzz cut and potential visible scars - any experience?

More about FUE Hair Transplant

I'd like to have a FUE procedure on my thinning crown. I keep my hair very short with a number 1 (3mm) buzz cut on top including my crown, and numbers 0.5-1 (1.5mm - 3mm) at the side. 

The only thing holding me back from having the procedure is that I'm worried that scars will show in the donor area and where the implants are

I have Type 2 skin on the Fitzpatrick scale and relatively fine hair

I'd be grateful for feedback and wisdom re the above. Thanks everyone
