Hair Transplant in Scars
Yes. Adding hair over a scar is a great camouflaging method. Depending on the quality of the scar it may be better to excise the scar first but that would be determined in an in depth consultation with your provider. Good luck!

Hair after mohs surgery
Hello,
Absolutely, hair can be transplanted into scars. I highly reccomend the FUE method which allows for follicles to be harvested individually through pin holes instead of trading one scar for another with the strip method.
Best of luck,
Dr. Malouf
