I want to have scar subcision performed on my scalp to release it and have it injected with Juvederm. Will this kill the hair?

I had Juvaderm injected three times to raise a indented scar on my scalp and it goes right back down in 2 days. I want to have scar subcision done to release it, I want to know if this will kill the hair.
