If you were left with a visible linear scar after a strip procedure, FUT scar revision can help restore a more natural appearance. A traditional FUT procedure removes a strip of scalp, which heals as a permanent linear scar that may widen depending on healing and scalp tension.
Dr. Kelemen performs advanced FUT scar revision using precise FUE graft placement into the scar to soften visibility and restore hair growth in the affected area. This technique helps camouflage the scar and improve the overall donor appearance, often allowing patients to wear shorter hairstyles again.
Every scar is different. Some benefit from grafting alone, while others may require a combined approach depending on scar width, tissue quality, and donor availability.
If you have a visible FUT scar and want to improve your donor area, a consultation with Dr. Kelemen can determine the best approach for natural, long-term results.
