Hair Transplantation Scalp Incision Side Effects Inquiry
How much nerve damage is caused if the scalp is cut deeper with a knife when incision is made to the inside of the scalp during hair transplantation?
Does it e . . .
Hello! This is Hyung-min Lee from Naver Knowledge Counseling.
It is a hospital that has been carrying out hair transplants for many years, so incision hair transplants are possible without worrying about side effects of incision.
Minimal incisions are advancing rapidly in all medical fields.
Likewise, advances in minimal incisions are being made in the field of hair transplantation.
As it is of great interest to minimize damage to skin, muscles, and nerves by making small incisions at the surgical site, minimal incisions have the advantage of shortening the operation time and significantly reducing bleeding, pain, and scars.
Due to the hair transplant incision method, sensation in the scalp decreases and scalp pain may occur at the incision site.
You don't need to worry too much as your sensation will return and the pain will subside within 1-6 months.
If something like the questioner's words occurs, it is recommended to visit the hospital where the hair transplant was performed and check the progress of the surgical site.
