130 CIT into strip (FUT) scar - 8 months after first pass (Hair Transplant)

posted by scarred5, 09.07.2008, 02:00

» Below is a photo showing a donor area of a patient who went to a well-known
» clinic to have a strip procedure performed to remedy his hair loss. One
» year after the strip (FUT) procedure, the patient’s goal was not met and an
» unwanted strip scar remained. The patient’s new goal was to have a
» session of CIT grafting into the scar to improve the appearance. In the
» summer of 2007, this younger patient came to our clinic for one small
» session of CIT and test of BHT into the strip scar.
»
» Dr. Cole’s treatment plan for the patient was to graft the scar using
» mostly scalp donor hair with a small percentage of leg hair to test yield
» of growth into the scar. Eight months later, the hair density into the
» scar is noticeably greater. In the first pass, Dr. Cole transplanted
» approximately 110 scalp hair grafts and approximately 20 body hair grafts
» from the legs. When transplanting into scar tissue, we have noticed that
» body hair tends to grow more consistently when anagen hairs are placed at
» lower densities (28 - 30 grafts per square centimeter). To significantly
» improve the appearance of strip scars, usually more than one session is
» usually required for optimal results. Also attached is a post-op photo
» showing the placement immediately after the second pass of grafting into
» the scar. We expect the patient’s growth to continue over time.
