Dr. Bernstein Answers Hair Restoration Questions From Bizymoms.com Readers
February 9th, 2010What are Options for Fixing Wide Donor Scars?
October 5th, 2009Q: I would like to have the donor area from an old hair transplant repaired so it does not show the scar when I cut my hair shorter. What are my options?
A: Widened scars can be improved in two ways: they can be re-excised to make the scar finer, or hair can be placed into the scar to make it less visible.
In Hair Transplant Repair, Can Follicular Unit Extraction Be Used To Remove Hair Plugs?
September 11th, 2009Q: I was wondering if it was possible to use Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE) on the old plugs instead of graft excision.

After Follicular Unit Extraction Hair Transplant at the Hairline, Will Bumps Go Away?
September 1st, 2009Q: I have had a hair transplant done in the hairline of 1,000 or so FUE grafts. However, as the hair sheds, under natural light the recipient skin seems bumpy with incisions and holes that are noticeable. Do these tend to go away with time once they have healed?
A: If a follicular unit transplant is performed properly (using either extraction or a strip) there should be no bumps or surface irregularities. When the hair restoration is totally healed, the recipient area should be appear as normal looking skin.
Can Follicular Unit Extraction Hair Transplant Repair Scar on Scalp?
April 17th, 2009Q: I wanted you to determine if I would be a candidate for FUE (to camouflage a scar). After reading through your vastly informative website, I had become aware that the Fox test is necessary to determine patient viability for FUE. When I mentioned the test, I believe I heard you say it [...]
