Correcting Old Hair Transplants in India

Repairing and Refining Previous Hair Transplants in India

Common reasons for corrective surgery include unnatural hairlines, visible scarring, low density, or weak regrowth. Depending on scalp condition and donor hair availability, techniques may include:

• Removing misplaced grafts with FUE and reimplanting to match natural growth
• Increasing density with new follicular units from healthy donor sites
• Using targeted grafting or scalp micropigmentation (SMP) to conceal scars
• Combining surgical repair with regenerative treatments like PRP, i-PRF, or GFC

Additional services such as Hairline Design & Restoration or Scarring Alopecia Treatment may be included for improved aesthetics.

Personalised Treatment Planning

Correction starts with mapping current hair growth and donor capacity. Alloroots provides in-clinic and online consultations to determine timing, technique, and expected outcomes. Steps include:

• Checking hairline symmetry and coverage
• Assessing donor hair quality
• Choosing surgical or non-surgical options
• Documenting progress with patient consent

Non-surgical options may involve Growth Factor Hair Therapy, LLLT, Dermapen, or Exosome Therapy to improve scalp health before surgery. Healing for grafts typically takes 7-10 days, with follow-up to monitor regrowth.

Technique Selection and Recovery

Repair methods depend on the cause of poor results and the desired outcome. Targeted graft removal and reimplantation may address hairline shape issues. Low density often requires harvesting from strong donor areas and placing new grafts in thinning zones. Regenerative treatments can help graft survival. Patients should allow downtime for recovery, avoid physical strain in the first week, and protect grafts from sun exposure.
