I Want Scar Revision and Then FUE to Eliminate My Scar Completely

Hi,

First of all I want to thank you for this informative blog. I have searched this wonderful blog and have found numerous postings relating scars and hair transplant. Here’s my case: I have what “they” call a coronal scar that runs from ear to ear. What I want is to completely cover the scar through a FUE procedure, but I want my scalp to be like how it first was, normal. My research has been conclusive and I first want to have a scar revision surgery to reduce the width of the scar, once that is done i want to follow some type of scar treatment to make the scar less obvious in color (seems like the scar gets pink/red after a scar revision surgery). Afterward get the FUE procedure and go from there. Is there any treatments that you would suggest?

I want the scar to be inconspicuous to the point to be able to cut the hair in the military/short hair style, because ultimatley i want to join the military as an officer.

Best Regards

Your plan is good, but it may not be realistic to have the scar completely hidden. Even if the hair in the scar is brought up to near normal density (which may take a few FUE procedures), there is often a color difference in the remaining scar, though of course it will be hidden with FUE grafts.

As you are local to my Los Angeles office, please arrange to see me so that I can ascertain a plan that matches yours. Any preparatory treatments can be assessed and recommended when you see me. You can call 800-NEW-HAIR (or 310-553-9113) to schedule a free consultation with myself or Dr Pak.
