I have furrows running from front to back on top of my scalp. These appeared when I went through a growth spurt at 14. I thought it was extra fat, but did some research and found out it's actually extra skin and the condition is called cutis verticis gyrata. I would like to have a surgical resection to remove the folds and create a smooth appearance. Are there surgeons who specialize in scalp surgery? I'm also concerned about scarring and how to minimize it. Thank you!
