Is it possible to get keloid or hypertrophic scarring from a hair transplant? How likely is it to occur? Or would the new hair hide it in any event?
Thanks in advance
A keloid is a possibility with any cut on the skin. If you have had a cut on the skin you will likely know if you keloid these cuts or not. Keloids are more common in people with African, Asian, and Hispanic skin types, and less common in Caucasians. That being said, scalp keloids from a hair transplant are very, very rare in all races.
