Regular Member xhairlossx Posted September 10, 2016 Regular Member Share Posted September 10, 2016 I had a cranioplasty a few years ago on the top of my skull. Is it possible to have a hair transplant after a cranioplasty? I have been worrying like crazy over this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Dutchie Posted September 11, 2016 Senior Member Share Posted September 11, 2016 I would go see a very qualified HT doctor and see what he/she says Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Transhair Posted September 11, 2016 Senior Member Share Posted September 11, 2016 Can't see why it would prevent a hair transplant. There was a cranioplasty related thread Realself, some surgeons recommended FUE to cover the scar, so a HT should be fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Glenn Charles Posted September 13, 2016 Share Posted September 13, 2016 Having had a prior cranioplasty does not mean you are not a candidate for hair transplantation surgery. It would depend on where on the scalp it was performed and your individual circumstances. Definitely want to see an experienced hair restoration physician.

The top of my head is where my hair is thinning. Would it be possible to inject something into the scalp to give more space between cranioplasty during the hair transplant?
