Jason Emer, MD · Answer

Thank you for your question, This needs an in-person evaluation. I suggest seeing a hair loss expert now to evaluate and go over your condition and provide you information about your best treatment options. There are great non-invasive options like prp/progesterone and/or hair transplantation. See an expert. Best, Dr. Emer

Jeff Donovan, MD, PhD · Answer

It depends entirely on the reasons for the scab. If th scab was due to eczema or other similar inflammatory cause, it likely will grow back. If the scab was due to folliculitis decalvans, or some infectious cause, it may not. See a physician for review.

William Rassman, MD (retired) · Answer

Your question is unclear. Did you have a hair transplant and if so when. Why did you have a scab that you had to remove?
