Corrective Hair Transplant for Scars

Options for Corrective Hair Transplant in Scar Restoration

A clinical evaluation identifies which method may suit a specific scar type. Common approaches include:

• FUE transplant, where individual follicles are placed into scar tissue to improve coverage.
• Scar camouflage by positioning hair to mask visible lines or patches.
• Hairline redesign, adjusting surrounding hair for a natural frame, available via Hairline Design & Restoration.
• Regenerative therapy add-ons, including PRP, GFC, or i-PRF to support healing and graft survival.
• Scalp micropigmentation, applying pigment to reduce the visual prominence of scars.

Scar age, position, and blood supply influence outcomes. Before/after images are shared only with patient consent.

Procedure and Aftercare

Planning for corrective hair transplant involves donor hair selection, preparing the recipient site, and microsurgical implantation. Scar tissue may heal more slowly than normal scalp, so aftercare is important. Steps include:

• Following hygiene and medication instructions exactly.
• Avoiding strenuous activity during the advised recovery period.
• Attending follow-up visits to track graft growth and scar response.
• Considering adjunct therapies like Growth Factor Hair Therapy (GFC) for scalp health.

Initial shedding of transplanted hairs is normal. Visible growth typically appears after several months.

Patients booking a consultation should bring any prior medical or surgical records. Alloroots offers both in-clinic and online appointments, with clear guidance on preparation.

Combining Hair Transplant with Regenerative Treatments

Combining surgical restoration with regenerative therapies may help improve density and healing in scarred areas. PRP, i-PRF, exosome therapy, ACell+PRP, and SVF are tailored to scalp condition and medical history. In cases of scarring alopecia, managing inflammation first via Scarring Alopecia Treatment can be part of the plan before transplant.
