They used my inner wrist skin to graft the flap so there was a patch of bare skin with only some hair, but like Karen, I had radiation afterwards so that nuked any hair.
Interestingly enough, most of the studies I found on the submental island flap, were about how great it was that they grew hair. Example: Hair-Bearing Submental Artery Island Flap for Reconstruction of Mustache and Beard
I know laser surgery is used by women all the time to remove unwanted hair but otherwise can't help. IMO, go for it.
