What Exactly is a Corrective Hair Restoration Procedure?

A corrective hair restoration procedure is a medical treatment that is performed to correct a previous hair transplantation surgery that has resulted in unsatisfactory results.

How can I avoid a hair restoration procedure disaster?

Simply stated, there are many physicians who advertise and perform hair surgery that lack the proper training and expertise in hair surgery. Many surgeons promote that they are “board certified plastic surgeons or dermatologists, ” but lack any formal training in hair surgery.

Many of these physicians purchase a FUE device and hire outside technicians to perform the entire hair surgery. This is illegal and dangerous to patient care.

How to fix a hair restoration procedure gone wrong?

What is the difference between a corrective hair restoration procedure and a regular hair restoration procedure?

If you’ve had a hair restoration procedure gone wrong, don’t worry it can likely be fixed. There are various types of corrective procedures that can be performed, and the best one for you will depend on the specific problem that needs to be corrected.

The Most Common Type of Corrective Procedure

The most common type of corrective procedure uses follicular unit excision (FUE) as the donor harvesting technique. FUE can be used to fix donor linear scars from a previous FUT procedure. Frequently, the original hair transplant surgery results in an unnatural placement of a frontal hairline with abnormal angles and direction of the follicles. Sometimes, restoration is required to increase low hair density and to improve the natural look of the hairline.

Who Is Qualified to Perform Corrective Hair Restoration?

Choosing the best corrective hair restoration procedure will require a face-to-face personal consultation with a board certified hair restoration expert like Dr. Ken Williams. Don’t make the mistake of choosing just any surgeon to perform hair restoration. Just like performing a facelift, tummy tuck, or plastic surgery requires a certain set of skills, corrective hair surgery requires a completely different skill set, experience, and knowledge.

Choosing a hair restoration surgeon is something to take seriously. Make sure you choose a surgeon who is experienced and has a good reputation. Make sure the surgeon you choose is a certified surgeon from the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery (ABHRS), like Dr. Ken Williams.

The ABHRS Diplomate status represents completed specialized training, skills, high ethical standard, knowledge, and are qualified to perform hair transplantation.

There are very few hair surgeons in the United States that can perform the FUE-FUT Hybrid procedure if that is the procedure needed. Be sure to make sure your surgeon also has a wide range of experience with all the donor harvesting techniques.

What to do next?

You will need to have a pre-operative appointment where medical history will be taken as well as photos will be taken prior to your surgery.
During your consultation with Dr. Williams, he will ask you about any medications you’re taking such as blood thinners or herbal supplements because these could affect bleeding during surgery.
