Benefits

Like all hair restoration procedures, scalp reductions are designed to produce a more healthy, youthful. Scalp reductions have a significant advantage over hair transplants in that they produce immediate results.

Scalp reductions are normally performed on men with balding on the crown of the head. Lifting the existing hair from around the sides of the scalp brings healthy hair follicles to the top of the scalp by simply raising them several inches. The hair then continues to grow at the same rate. It will not thin or die unless hair on the sides of the head also thins and dies.

If you're considering a scalp reduction, the following information will provide you with a good introduction to the procedure. For more detailed information about how this procedure may help you, we recommend that you consult a board-certified plastic surgeon with experience in hair replacement procedures.
