Burned Area on My Face Doesn’t Grow Facial Hair

Hey Doc,

My question is not to complex. I have a facial scar from a burn on my right cheek. When i grow facial hair it grows everywhere but the burn on my cheek. Looks kinda dumb! My question to you is can i have hair transplanted into the burn so that hair will grow and cover the scar? Have yo done this before with sucess? Thanks for your time in answering my question…. Happy New Year!

My answer is simple — yes. Hair transplantation to burned areas work and can disguise the burn on prior hair-bearing skin. The texture and the growth rate may be slightly different than the facial hair, but it should be better than a bald spot.
