Introducing scar revision at North Atlanta Hair Restoration
Scalp scars from prior FUT strip procedures, plugs, injury, or surgery can be corrected using FUE graft placement directly into and around the affected area. Dr. Danyo and Dr. Goldstein use scalp or beard hair to fill in scarring with minimal grafts, allowing natural hair to grow through the scar and conceal it effectively. For more complex cases, including scars that have adhered to underlying tissue, North Atlanta Hair Restoration uses a targeted fat transplant technique beneath the scar to create the conditions needed for successful graft growth.
Complex cases welcome. Including scars from burns, injury, and neurosurgery.
Correction after prior procedures. Hair grows back through the scar naturally.
Physicians only. Every procedure led by Dr. Danyo or Dr. Goldstein.
Most scars can be treated. Even the ones you've been told can't.
Scalp scars are among the most nuanced cases in hair restoration. The tissue is often irregular, blood supply may be compromised, and follicle survival rates can vary significantly depending on the nature and depth of the scar. Most clinics turn these cases away or lack the experience to approach them correctly.
Dr. Danyo and Dr. Goldstein assess every scar individually, consider the full history of prior procedures, and build a treatment plan designed around what will actually work for your specific situation. In many cases, meaningful concealment can be achieved with relatively few grafts.
When the scar matters as much as the hair, experience makes all the difference.
Scar tissue behaves differently from healthy scalp. Approach matters here more than almost anywhere else in hair restoration, and the margin for error is smaller.
Every Scar is Different
Strip scars, plug scars, injury scars, and surgical scars all present different challenges. There is no single protocol that works for all of them. Dr. Danyo and Dr. Goldstein evaluate each case on its own terms before recommending an approach.
Targeted Fat Transplant for Adhered Scars
For scars that have bonded to underlying tissue or bone, Dr. Danyo uses a small fat transplant beneath the scar to restore the conditions needed for grafts to survive and grow. This technique has produced excellent results in cases that other providers have been unable to treat.
Minimal Grafts, Maximum Concealment
Scar revision at NAHR is designed to be efficient. In many cases, relatively few grafts are needed to achieve meaningful concealment, particularly when scalp and beard hair are strategically combined.
Physician Led, Every Step
The complexity of scar tissue means that precision and judgment are critical at every stage. Dr. Danyo and Dr. Goldstein perform every extraction and placement, ensuring the highest standard of care.
Is scar revision right for you?
If a previous procedure or injury has left a visible mark on your scalp that affects your confidence or how you wear your hair, you may be a strong candidate. These are the profiles we most commonly treat.
“I was worried everyone would notice when I got back, but no one did. The staff were incredible throughout the process, and I’m already seeing results and couldn’t be happier with how everything looks so far.”
