User Avatar
Rover777Sep 4, 2015
I had 3 FUT operations that left scars in my donor area. Doctor ilker told me he is used the same scar area in 2nd and 3rd op. The time between 1st and 2nd FUT was 2 years, then 3 years between the 2nd and the 3rd one. It sure left some significant scar(s) in donor area, although all are covered by hire, I need an advice how to treat It and make it disappear and the best method for it; pigmentation or transplant, laser etc... Thanks in Advance

Finasteride will not affect your transplanted hairs.  Finasteride will affect your non-transplanted hairs.  All drugs have side effects.  If you are concerned about taking the medication, speak with your doctor about it's risks and benefits.

This is very unusual for hair transplant and was seen more commonly with older techniques.  Do you scar poorly everywhere?  I would need to see you in person to develop a plan to improve this area.

Dear sanchez91Thanks for the question. Typically, it's best to avoid consuming alcoholic beverages for at least 48 hours after surgery. Even if you do consume alcohol, be sure to go easy. I wish you all the best.
