Unfortunately, no matter which type of hair transplant you choose, some level of scarring is unavoidable. The visibility of these scars depends on the transplant method used. It also varies based on the hairstyle you wear afterward.
This method removes a thin strip of skin with hair from the back of the head. The strip is then divided into small grafts with one to four hairs each. These grafts are implanted into tiny cuts in the scalp. Afterward, the donor area is stitched closed, leaving a linear scar across the back of the head.
This approach requires shaving the back of the head before extracting individual hair grafts one at a time. It avoids a long scar. However, it creates many small circular scars where each follicle was removed.
At Carolina Scalp Center, we use scalp micropigmentation to reduce the visibility of these transplant scars. By placing pigment that mimics natural hair follicles, we blend the scarred areas with the surrounding hair. As a result, you see a fuller and more natural-looking appearance. The scar becomes very difficult to notice unless someone knows it’s there.
Led by SMP artist Mike Greene, our team is dedicated to helping clients restore confidence by concealing scalp scars. Using advanced scalp micropigmentation techniques, we apply organic pigments into scarred areas. This recreates the look of natural follicles and creates a seamless, realistic finish.
Whether your scars are from hair transplants, injuries, or medical procedures, our treatments can reduce their visibility. You can enjoy a more uniform and natural-looking scalp. Let the Carolina Scalp Center team help you gain a renewed sense of confidence with treatments designed to enhance both your appearance and self-esteem.
