Treating White Scars From Hair Transplant
Hair Transplant – What is the best treatment for white scars which left after transplant surgery?
Today’s hair transplants do not produce a white scar if follicular unit transplants are performed. The old plugs done 20+ years ago, had white skin within the plugs and many of the older plugs never grew, so these poor souls had white scars (depigmented from the damage of transferred grafts). If this is what you are talking about, you should review our articles on repair that were published in Dermatologic Surgery in 2002:
- The Art of Repair in Surgical Hair Restoration Part I: General Aspects of Repair and Basic Repair Strategies
- The Art of Repair in Surgical Hair Restoration Part II: The Tactics of Repair
If I missed something or misunderstood your question, please write me again to clarify.
