Scarring

A scar forms as the body’s defence to further injury to an area.  That defence comes in the form of a tight matrix of collagen which is often seen through the hair or on the scalp more than anywhere else because of the amount of blood vessels this area of the body contains.  Scars are usually caused by previous transplant attempts whether follicular unit transplantation or follicular unit extraction, scars from head surgery or scars from injuries, those areas are not only visible, but they are also unlikely to produce any hair.

How can SouthEast Scalp Help

Scalp micropigmentation for scars is outstanding for two reasons.  Firstly, the careful application of genuine looking hair follicles in and around the scar, renders the scars invisible.  Of course, it takes a skilled and experienced artist to work effectively within scarred tissue.  This is critical to consider.  Secondly, the act of applying scalp micropigmentation on its own can help to relax the scars simply by interfering with the tight tissue and replacing it with healthier tissue.  When healed, you will forget that scar was ever there.

Understanding of skin and the healing cascade is essential to this service.  This is how art and science come together in synergy.
