My FUT did not go well and the transplanted hair is also gone almost, i hate the concept of living on tablets for the rest of my life but i don't mind minoxidil. I want to keep my head shaved now but how? Is using the body hair to cover the scar to some extent feasible and will it last? Can i also use it with on the top of my head to cover the fallen transplanted hair? Thanks

Answer: FUT scar revision There are many ways to treat an unsightly FUT scar. Transplanting into the scar with scalp or body hair is certainly an option. Another option is tattooing the area, or doing a combination of tattooing and transplant. A second FUT can also be considered, but the use of A-cell and growth factors at the wound site would be recommended to decrease the risk of scarring again. I'm a big proponent of growth factors, PRP (platelet rich plasma) and SVF (stromal vascular fraction - which has stem cells from your own fat tissue) to help grow hair and to help treat scaring. Bottom line, is that you have a ton of options if you are willing to pursue them.
