Who Might Not Be Suitable for Hair Transplant Revision?
While hair transplant repair can deliver excellent results,
it may not be right for everyone — at least not immediately.
You may not be a good candidate if you:
✖️ Have insufficient donor hair for correction
✖️ Have active scalp infections or inflammation
✖️ Expect unrealistic density or coverage in scarred areas
✖️ Haven’t fully healed from your previous transplant (usually needs 6–12 months)
✖️ Cannot commit to proper aftercare and follow-ups
At Ultima Hair Center, Dr. Ming offers honest consultations to assess if you’re ready for revision — and to guide you toward the best long-term outcome.
