dc.description.abstractA surgical incision after suturing usually leaves a visible scar on the hair-bearing skin, even after optimal wound conditions. The conspicuousness of such a scar results from its linear continuity and hairlessness. To prevent this effect, a row of micrografts or minigrafts was inserted between the wound edges immediately after wound closure. The hair grafts that were transplanted were dissected from the discharged skin in the same surgical procedure, if feasible. Otherwise, a mini donor strip was harvested from the mastoid scalp to dissect the hair grafts. The final linear scar was interrupted and concealed sufficiently with the growth of the transplanted hairs. Tension-free closure is required to obtain a satisfactory result with this technique.
