I got into an accident 10 years ago, which caused scarring around my front hairline. Ive been wearing my hair parted to the side to cover up the scar tissue and bald patch, and I was just wondering if I would be a good candidate for a hair transplant on this area?
Hair transplants can be done to treat the baldness secondary to your accident, but grafts do not grow as well in scarred tissue and it is difficult to to achieve normal uniform density that matches the rest of the scalp in a female patient. Moving the adjacent hair-bearing scalp after excising the scar would give you a natural result will total freedom of styling.
I recently just got eyebrow transplant and still scabbing of course. Now after the scabbing goes away. Can i shave some of the implanted hair a little bit just to shape it evenly with my right eyebrows? Thanks
Shaving eyebrow transplanted hair can be done without problem. The hair direction however was set by the angle at which it was placed and won't be altered by combing, etc.
What ointments or drugs can be used to increase the success rate? What does one do to prepare for a hair transplant?
It is very unlikely that hair transplant surgery will be unsuccessful when done by a good surgeon and his/her team. However some results are better than others. It is important that the patient is a good candidate for this surgery with adequate donor supply and quality hair. Remember, alopecia is progressive throughout life. Good health is important with any surgical procedure. Success will depend on the goals of the patient who will be the ultimate judge. That is why many of our patients prefer the Fleming/Mayer Flap which provides immediate results with normal, uniform density and freedom of styling.
