Our Repair Patient Today From Central America

[35YrsAfter]

Our patient today comes to us from Central America. Several years ago he had seborrheic dermatitis and as a result his hair became noticeably thinner. He decided to undergo hair restoration surgery approximately one year ago. Our patient told me that he didn't do any research and settled on a local doctor in Central America. The result is obvious... a widened strip scar, 1,2,3 and 4-hair grafts placed right on the hairline at a low density. Another issue with his result is "tenting", or a raised appearance that looks like follicular units growing from small hypopigmented bumps. On the positive side, our patient's hair loss stopped a short time after he got past the seborrheic dermatitis. He began taking Propecia to help with the seborrheic dermatitis related hair loss and he now, even before repair surgery has (native hair) excellent density on top. A scar like this generally takes two or more passes. Our patient loves to surf and he told me that the current state of his strip scar is keeping him off the beach and he avoids getting his head wet in public.
