Would FUE be able to treat the folliculitis scarring I have on the nape of my neck? (Photo)

After the folliulits treatment get well, its better to ask the treating doctor regarding the consultation..

First of all before embarking on any treatment for scarring in this scenario it is important that the underlying cause i.e. the folliculitis is treated fully and is dormant. In relation to scarring in the nape of the neck I would not always advise placing FUE grafts to camouflage the area, a better option may be scalp micropigmentation. Ultimately the best treatment options are dependent on what exactly you would like to achieve and as always I would advise seeking a consult with a specialist local to you. 

If you are considering surgery it would be best to discuss your options with a doctor. You need to explain to your doctor your goals and expectations.  The doctor needs to examine you to give you a better assessment.

The FUE can treat the scars. For the folliculitis, you should treat it first and then you need to get in person consultation to advice if the implantation is possible or no.

While we do perform grafting into scar tissue, the results and regrowth are less predictable. I would advise you to consult with a hair restoration specialist and discuss your options and expectations.

Hi, better make sure your folliculitis is well treated and being stable, then see the doctor to examine if you are suitable for FUE hair transplant.

Grafting into scar tissue can only be evaluated correctly in person. Reaction can differ greatly. If possible and performed to a good standard the hairs can take and grow successfully. The chances are increased by placing a lower hair density over the surface area initially. Maybe building up over time if required. 

It depends on the type of scarring you have and how quiet or active the folliculitis is.  You can certainly use FUE to graft scars.  You would need to be evaluated in person to determine whether grafting this situation is advisable. 

Hello, good question. I suggest you see your doctor to discuss your concerns and a good path forward. Good luck to you.

In order to tell if a FUE surgery would be a good game plan for you, I would recommend you meet with a qualified Hair Transplant Surgeon to determine the type of scarring you have, just to see if you need a treatment plan if it is folliculitis.  Once that is determined, you will be able to make the best decisions for you.
