I Want To Undo My Plugs From 14 Years Ago
I was looking at your photos of the blog “Alas, Bald Again”. That is what I am considering. I have had about the same amount of hair transplants and in the same area. I want to have the transplants removed and not have any more work done. I was wondering if this could be done and be able to not have a bunch of scarring and divits left on my scalp? I had the work done about 14 yrs ago and wish I just would have went bald. Thank you.
You’re referring to: Alas, Bald Again.
Each case is different. Scars, plugs, pits, color changes in the skin of the plugs, cobbling of the skin — all of these things must be analyzed. This type of question is not an easy one to manage over the internet. I have many posts on this subject and this one shows a long cure time and an expensive process. Based upon a direct examination, I might be able to give you advice.
I also want to remove some old transplants. I really regret getting them in the first place. I have been removing them with tweezers and, infrequently, with hot wax. I notice sometimes that the entire bulb comes out with minor bleeding. Is this fully removed or will it continue to grow? At this point, my hair loss is starting to show the old work. What can be done for accepable appearance. I really don’t think I want more transplants. Thanks
