FUE White Dot Scars - Options to Fix It?

I have terrible fue scarring after 3000 grafts and wonder what I can do about it. 1.Fraxel laser to see if the white dots blend out and golfball surface from where the grafts where taken. 2.Make slit in the white dots and fill with Acell to create new tissue growth. 3.Bodyhair to the scars but that will not make the white dots go away.

A: FUE can create white dot scars

Unfortunately you are experiencing one of the unadvertised results of follicular unit extraction. Anytime the skin is cut there will be a scar - no ifs, ands, or buts about it. In the case of strip harvesting this will be a linear scar. In the case of FUE, there will be white dots left behind. These white dots are hypopigmented areas and will never fill back in. You have a couple of options. First is medical tattooing of the area. Second, you can perform a laser resurfacing procedure to lighten the surrounding skin and make the white dots blend better. Third, longer hair will cover the scar. These and a couple of other options are all subject to your particular problem and skin color. I would recommend talking with a plastic surgeon or facial plastic surgeon who performs hair transplants to further discuss your options.

Hair Falling off 4 Years After Hair Transplantation (FUE) Procedure

Hi, I had my FUE procedure done 4 years ago. But now my transplanted hair is falling off again. is it normal? what are my options now? thanks in advacne

A: Hair Falling Out After Transplant

Hair which has been transplanted from the correct area should not fall out after a hair transplant procedure due to androgenic alopecia. There are several options for this loss. Medical conditions such as thyroid disorders, physical stress, and autoimmune conditions should be evaluated. It may also be possible that your hair was not harvested from an area which is immune to androgenic alopecia. I would certainly suggest visiting a hair restoration specialist or dermatologist for further evaluation.
