Scar Area Transplant That Covers Forehead Lift and Reduction Scars
We transplant hair into scars left by forehead lift or reduction surgery, or by trauma, so they blend in naturally.
- Duration
- Varies by graft count
- Recovery
- Daily life in 1 day · sutures out after 10–12 days for strip
- Anesthesia
- Local anesthesia · sedation available
A procedure that transplants hair into scars left by previous surgery or trauma in order to cover them.
Scar tissue has reduced blood flow and altered structure, requiring a more meticulous approach than standard transplantation.
MOLIV carefully analyzes the condition of scar tissue and creates optimal conditions for graft survival before transplanting.
Effects
- Surgical or trauma scars are naturally concealed through hair transplantation
- Reduced scar visibility increases hairstyle flexibility
- Staged transplantation supports stable graft survival even in scar tissue
Recommended for
- Visible scars remaining from forehead reduction surgery
- Scars near the hairline area from injuries or burns
Process
Scar Condition Analysis — We assess the tissue condition of the scar area and determine transplant feasibility.
Transplant Plan Design — We develop a transplant strategy tailored to the specific scar characteristics.
Precision Transplant — Grafts are placed at the appropriate depth and angle for the scar tissue.
Follow-Up — We monitor graft survival rate and the degree of scar coverage.
Precautions
- Scar tissue has lower blood flow, so graft survival rates may be somewhat lower than in normal tissue
- Depending on the scar extent and condition, 1–2 sessions may be needed
- The scope of transplantation may vary based on scar depth and tissue condition
Related FAQ
Can grafts survive well in scar tissue?
Scar tissue may have a somewhat lower survival rate, but with the appropriate technique, effective coverage is achievable.
Is one session enough?
Depending on the scar extent and condition, one to two sessions may be needed.
How does recovery progress?
Mild swelling may appear for the first 2–3 days, and scabs fall away naturally over 7–14 days. Transplanted hairs shed temporarily between weeks 2 and 8, new growth begins around months 3–4, and the result matures over 6–12 months. The head doctor reviews your progress together at each follow-up visit.
When can I wash my hair?
Gentle washing usually starts on day 3–4 following the method we guide you through, and from about a week on you can wash as usual. We help you with the first wash in person when you visit.
