Post Burn Allopecia
Post-burn alopecia refers to hair loss that occurs after a burn injury. Severe burns can damage hair follicles, leading to permanent hair loss in the affected area. Treatment options for post-burn alopecia aim to improve hair regrowth and restore a natural appearance. These may include hair transplantation techniques such as follicular unit transplantation (FUT) or follicular unit extraction (FUE), where healthy hair follicles are transplanted from other areas of the body to the affected site. Additionally, scalp micropigmentation or the use of hair prosthetics can provide cosmetic solutions for individuals with extensive hair loss. It is important to consult with a qualified hair restoration specialist to determine the most appropriate treatment approach based on the severity and location of the burn injury.
