What Causes Cobble stoning After a Hair Transplant Procedure?
Causes of Cobble stoning
Whether it is a FUE or a FUT hair transplant, the plastic surgeon should transplant numerous follicles from the donor area to the patient’s scalp. This means that cobblestoneing can take two forms.
When the plastic surgeon fails to transplant the follicles deeply into the patient’s scalp. Keeping the hair transplants too high causes the adjacent tissues to rise after the incisions heal. As a result, increased healing leads to cobblestoneing.
When the tissues repair incorrectly, or when the plastic surgeon removes too many tissues from the donor location. The elevated and uneven appearance is known as cobblestoning.
