Minimising & Managing Hair Transplant Scars: A Guide from Arogyam Hair Transplant Clinic
Minimising & Managing Hair Transplant Scars: A Guide from Arogyam Hair Transplant Clinic
1. Understanding Hair Transplant Scarring
Hair transplant procedures—whether FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) or FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation)—inevitably involve incisions, which heal into scars.
• FUT creates a thin linear scar at the donor site, visible if the hair is kept very short
• FUE leaves numerous tiny circular ‘dot’ scars scattered across the donor zone, which are typically barely noticeable once hair regrows
2. Factors That Influence Scar Visibility
Several factors affect how noticeable scars become:
• Your chosen surgical method – FUE usually results in less visible scarring versus FUT.
• Surgeon’s skill and technique, including punch size, trichophytic closure, and suture precision
• Your individual healing, skin type, and any tendency toward hypertrophic or keloid scarring.
• Post-op care compliance, including proper hygiene, sun protection, and avoiding tension on the healing area
3. How We Minimise Scars at Arogyam Clinic
• State‑of‑the‑art FUE: We use blunt titanium motorized punches, carefully selected for minimal transection and small skin trauma
• Trichophytic closure in FUT cases ensures ultra-fine linear scars that blend with surrounding hair and often become imperceptible over time .
• Experienced surgeon: Dr. P. J. Mazumdar—first American Board Certified ABHRS Diplomate in the Northeast—performs all steps himself and follows global ethical and technical guidelines
4. Managing Scars After Surgery: Our Care Protocol
• Topical care: We recommend silicone gel, low‑dose steroid cream for raised scars, and needleless delivery for comfort
• Massaging: Gentle scar massage after a few weeks improves circulation and helps soften scar tissue.
• Sun protection: Using hats or sunscreen during the first few months prevents pigmentation changes around scars.
• Lifestyle guidance: Avoid smoking and alcohol pre‑ and post‑ surgery to support healing.
5. Treatments for Existing or Prominent Scars
If scars persist or are noticeable, we offer effective solutions:
• Scalp micropigmentation (SMP): Non-invasive micro‑dot pigmentation camouflages linear or dot scars to match hair colour
• Scar revision surgery or FUE scar camouflage: Grafts can be placed directly into scar tissue for blending or linear scars can be excised and re‑sutured neatly .
• Laser scar revision: Smooths raised or textured scars, improving appearance with minimal downtime
6. Realistic Expectations & Final Thoughts
While complete scar elimination isn’t realistic, scars typically become well‑concealed and often imperceptible—with the right surgical method, healing support, and expert oversight.
At Arogyam Hair Transplant Clinic, we combine global‑standard techniques, advanced instrumentation, and personalised aftercare so your results look natural—and your scars remain discreet.

Arogyam Hair Transplant Clinic takes several steps to ensure that quality is maintained for each and every patient. The key to quality maintenance is to implement quantizable quality standards and maintain proper documentation and review of processes. Downtown Hospital is an ISO 9001:2008 and NABH accredited hospital which demands strict adherence to quality control.Steps taken are:
Safety assurance: all procedures are done in the main OT of Downtown Hospital with its full complement of anesthesiologists and critical care specialists. Hence patients are assured of full safety standards at the same level as that of major surgeries including transplant surgeries.
Sterilization assurance: since procedures are done in the major OT full sterilization is maintained. Fumigation is done every week and swab tests are done to check for contamination.
Best instrumentation: Arogyam Hair Transplant Clinic uses the best available instruments like 6X Heine Loupe for precision and accuracy, Blunt Titanium punches which avoids damage and transection of the Follicular Units, Choi implanters to standardise the process of planting and prevent damage during planting, Major OT level sterilization, fumigation and autoclaving of all instruments, etc.
Efficiency count: Efficiency counts for FUE like transection rates and speed of transplant are noted and documented for each case and reviewed every 10 cases. Arogyam Hair Transplant achieves international standards of transection and speed consistently.
Counting trays: Counting trays are used to contain the follicular units and all patients are given photographs on their mobiles which they can use to easily count the number of follicular units taken out so that they can be sure that they have received the correct number of FU's.
Dr. P. J. Mazumdar is the first and only American Board Certified Diplomate of the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery and all procedures are done following the ethical and technical guidelines of the American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery and the International Society for Hair Restoration Surgery. As such, patients can be assured of receiving full professional care as per International standards approved by the ABHRS and ISHRS.
Correct recepient density: To ensure correct recepient density, 'density stamps' are used to ensure proper density is achieved. Angle and direction of hair is meticulously maintained.
Out of body time: The out of body time, the time for which the follicular unit is outside the body, is the most critical factor for success in hair transplant. Aroyam Hair Transplant follows a special procedure to ensure that this time is the minimum. This is done by doing only 1000 follicular units at a time and then replanting them. This ensures that time out of body is less than or equal to1 hour only. This is the shortest period acheivable. Many centers do upto 2000-2500 follicular units at a time so that time out of body goes upto 4-5 hours. We are proud of our time out of body quantum. Though this may cause some sacrifice of time but results are more important.
Follow up: follow up period is critical for the patient when there are many doubts and anxieties in his mind. In our clinic, Dr. P. J. Mazumdar will remain always accessible to the patient directly on his personal mobile for any questions the patient may have during this period.
