Reducing Visibility of Transplant Scar – Hair Loss Information by Dr. William Rassman

Dr. Rassman,

I had 1 hair transplant procedure 2 years ago. I am only 22. I feel like the propecia is not working and I am ready to shave my head, but I want to reduce the appearance of the scar from the procedure. I am currently using Mederma. Are there any other products you could suggest to reduce the visibility of the scar? Thanks!

If you had only one transplant procedure, you should not be facing a significant scar. I am bothered not only about your scar, but your age. What drove you to have a transplant at 22? A good, honest, and competent transplant doctor should look at your scar and advise you. Consider sending me digital photos and maybe I can help, but send me photographs of your entire head as well (your photos will be kept confidential and will not be shown on this site). As well, please reference this blog posting when/if sending the photos.
