Cicatricial Alopecia & Scar Repair Hair Transplant in India
Cicatricial Alopecia & Scar Repair Hair Transplant in India
What is Cicatricial Alopecia?
What is Cicatricial Alopecia?
Cicatricial alopecia, also known as scarring alopecia, is a form of permanent hair loss caused by inflammation, trauma, or disease that damages the hair follicles and replaces them with scar tissue. Once scarring occurs, natural hair growth in that area stops — and conventional treatments won’t work.
Common causes include:
Burns (thermal, chemical, or radiation)
Surgical scars (post-FUT or scalp surgeries)
Injuries or accidents
Skin conditions like lichen planopilaris, discoid lupus, or folliculitis decalvans
Infections or severe acne

Can Hair Be Restored in Scar Tissue?
Can Hair Be Restored in Scar Tissue?
Yes — but with special considerations.
Scar tissue has reduced blood supply, lower elasticity, and a different texture compared to healthy scalp. That’s why not all clinics are equipped or experienced enough to handle these complex cases.
At IIHT, Dr. Radha Rani uses modified FUE techniques, specialized tools, and growth-boosting therapies to implant healthy follicles into scarred areas — carefully assessing each case for graft survival, angle, and aesthetic integration.

FAQs on Temple Hair Restoration
Do hair grafts grow well in scars?
Yes, but results may vary. Graft survival depends on the scar’s depth, blood flow, and skin health.
Is it safe?
Absolutely — when done by an experienced surgeon using the right tools and protocols.
How many sessions are needed?
In some cases, multiple sessions may be needed to build density gradually.
Does the hair look natural after regrowth?
Yes. If properly implanted, the new hair blends well even in previously scarred zones.
Can this be done after a failed transplant?
Yes. Many patients with scarring from poor transplants come to us for correction.
