Regular Member Rugman Posted March 6 Regular Member Share Posted March 6 I had strip surgery about 10 years ago but have finally lost the battle of continued hair loss and plan on shaving my head. I wanted to see what can be done to minimize the scar if I shave my head completely bald. Has anyone used dermabrasion or other techniques to minimize the scar successfully?

Regular Member jjalay Posted March 6 Regular Member Share Posted March 6 You can use dermmatch to hide the scar. Another option is doing smp into the scar or even fue some grafts into the scar. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valued Contributor Gatsby Posted March 7 Valued Contributor Share Posted March 7 Personally and from my own experience I would first look at SMP. Later you could also have FUE into the strip itself. All the best. GATSBY 'UNPLUGGED!' 15,671 (3 surgeries) Grafts FUE+BHT Dr. Sethi Eugenix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Be careful though, you need to find a really good smp artist who has experience with smp into scars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member HairFunk Posted March 8 Senior Member Share Posted March 8 Do you have any photos of your scar? There’s been many great cases of 200 - 300 FUE grafts into the scar to disguise it. Some go further then with SMP on-top of the scalp / using it in the donor region also to add the look of shaved hair all over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
