Here is a patient of mine who underwent radiation therapy for a brain tumor and was left with a bald patch on the side of his scalp after the treatment. I harvested 250 grafts from the donor area via FUE and placed the grafts into the scar and the the result is show after 8 months. The patient is thrilled with his results as the bald patch had been a constant reminder of his previous illness. Hair transplants can be a excellent way to conceal surgical scars or scars from radiation therapy when the blood supply to the area is still good.
