Repair of Failed Hair Transplant

Overview

A repair hair transplant, also known as a corrective hair transplant, is a specialized procedure designed to address and improve the results of a previous hair transplant that did not meet the patient’s expectations. This procedure focuses on correcting issues such as unnatural hairline placement, poor hair density, scarring, or uneven hair growth. By carefully removing and repositioning existing grafts, or adding new ones, our skilled surgeons at Folliderm work to create a more natural-looking appearance. Given the complexities involved, such as working with scar tissue and limited donor supply, the success of a repair hair transplant relies on the expertise and precision of the surgeon to achieve the best possible outcome.

Why choose Folliderm?

Correcting failed hair transplants presents several challenges and special considerations. The reduced donor area, poorly designed hairlines, and scarring from previous procedures make it difficult to achieve desired outcomes. These factors can also be emotionally distressing for the patient. Rectifying and reconstructing what has already been compromised requires significant skill and expertise. It’s essential to carefully manage the remaining donor hair, create a new and improved hairline design, and minimize further scarring. Hair transplant surgery demands specific qualifications, extreme precision, and mastery of various techniques. Selecting the right clinic is crucial to ensure you are treated by an experienced surgeon and care team capable of delivering the best possible results.
