The more we, as hair surgeons, focus on achieving good results, the less attention is diverted from the donor area. This is an equally important factor in ensuring patient satisfaction.
I have made a video showcasing the donor area of a patient after 2530 grafts. It’s important to note that this type of hair/scalp is particularly challenging when it comes to visible scarring due to the following factors:
• There is a high contrast between the patient’s black hair and white skin.
• The hair is thin.
• The donor hairs have a spiky appearance, pointing more outward instead of lying flat against the back of the head.
• The patient has a fade haircut.
Please take these factors into consideration when evaluating the video. If you observe closely, you will notice the small scars that typically appear after surgery.
