Donor scars • We are frequently asked how donor scar looks after surgery • This in fact the single biggest concern of our patients. • We have put some photos to show how they can look.
Remember • Zero scar is not possible after any surgery • Even a small pimple heals with a scar. • So to expect that after any method you will have zero scar is unrealistic • If any advertisement says no scar- PLEASE. DO NOT BELEIVE
How ever with current techniques, scars have improved greatly • The next few slides show how nice the scar can be from both FUT & FUE.
What is important ??? • Scar should be minimal, should not be visible.
FUT Scar can not be identified even after separation of hairs
This patient had FUT before and came for second session- identify the scar
This is how FUE looks after healing- slightly less dense appearance
This patient has under gone both FU T and FUE- see if you can identify
Message • Current techniques yield great results • In experienced hands FUT scar with trichophytic closure can be nearly as good as FUE scar at half the cost • What is important is proper technique and experience of the surgeon .
Remember • You are doing surgery to look good in bald area • So don’t put cart before the wheel….
