Transplanting Hair Into a Cleft Lip Scar, Follow-Up
This is a follow-up to a post last week, Transplanting Hair Into a Cleft Lip Scar:
Hi Dr. Rassman, this is a continuation from the cleft lip question. I forgot to add, the failed surgery was due to laser surgery. It became a hypertrophic scar after the laser surgery. So not sure if hair transplant is possible for that??
thanks for answer the question though
For a specific case, I’d need to make an examination to see what could be possible. Generally, transplanted hair grafts in real hypertrophic scars (keloids) often do not grow as well.
