What are the Causes of Scarring After Hair Transplantation?
Surgical Method: In traditional surgical techniques such as FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation), making a linear incision in the hair transplant area may cause scarring.
Genetic Factors: An individual’s genetic predisposition can affect scarring. Some people may tend to develop more scars.
Skin Type: Skin type can affect scar formation. Scars may be more prominent in individuals with sensitive skin.
Post-Operative Care: Inadequate or improper post-operative care can affect the healing process and increase scarring.
Risk of Infection: The risk of infection after hair transplantation can increase scar formation. Failure to follow hygiene rules may increase the risk of infection.
Immune System Reactions: The individual’s immune system can affect the post-operative healing process and affect scar formation.
Use of Wrong Technique or Technology: Improper choice of technique or technology used in hair transplantation operations may increase scar formation.
Wound Healing Ability: Each individual’s wound healing ability is different. Fast healing individuals may have less scar formation.
The combination of these factors may affect scar formation after hair transplantation.
