Now that hair transplant surgeons can create natural hairlines and undetectable hair transplant results, many patients seek correction for the unnatural procedures of days past. Such corrective hair transplant surgery is offered at our facility, located in Los Gatos, California. Correction for the unsightly "plugs" or "corn rows" is certainly obtainable and extremely satisfying. Corrective surgery is also requested for more recent hair restoration procedures performed in an unsatisfactory manner with poor technique, choices, and planning. Any number of variables can result in unsatisfactory results, including:
Plugs or corn rows
Overly straight hairlines
Hairline is too low or in an unnatural position
Hair growing at wrong angles and directions
Poor density
Bad scarring
An unsatisfactory hair transplantation result may also simply be the result of poor density with the progression of hair loss.
Corrective hair transplant surgery is often more challenging than a standard procedure. Depending on the cause(s) for the poor, unnatural result, corrective hair transplant surgery may include one or several of procedures:
Removal of hair in wrong positions (replaced further back)
Removal of large "plugs" (trimmed and replaced further back)
Follicular unit grafting to blend into unnatural hairlines or hairlines
with improper angles and direction
Follicular unit grafting simply to increase density
Strip excisions of hair in the wrong positions
Brow lift to raise a low hairline
Hairline advancement - possible use of tissue expander –
to bring higher density hairlines forward
Scalp reductions with grafting at a later date.
Depending on the extent of corrective hair transplant surgery and the reconstructive skills of our hair restoration surgeon, a plastic surgeon may be more suitable for more involved corrective needs. However, for corrective hair transplant surgery, residents of the Bay Area, and surrounding areas trust the Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) specialists at Medical Hair Transplant and Aesthetics.
