Preparing your scalp before a hair transplant: the importance of DS & PSO care
A hair transplant won't take on an inflamed scalp.
That's why it's essential to treat certain conditions, such as seborrheic dermatitis (SD) and scalp psoriasis (PSO), beforehand.
As a Doctor of Pharmacy and certified Trichologist, I have developed specific protocols to cleanse and soothe the scalp before any transplant.
Why treat SD and PSO before a transplant?
-
Seborrheic dermatitis causes greasy scales, itching, and chronic inflammation.
-
Scalp psoriasis leads to thick, inflammatory patches, which prevent uniform implantation.
👉 Under these conditions, the grafts cannot anchor properly, and the transplant is doomed to failure.
The risks of a transplant without prior treatment
-
Poor healing
-
Persistent inflammation
-
Loss of implanted grafts
-
Compromised aesthetic result
A pre-transplant protocol reduces inflammation, eliminates scales, and optimizes the chances of success.
Our pre-transplant protocols for SD & PSO
To prepare the scalp, we have designed two specific protocols:
-
SD protocol (seborrheic dermatitis): cleanses the scalp, reduces greasy scales, and limits inflammatory flare-ups.
-
PSO protocol (scalp psoriasis): soothes patches, promotes skin regeneration, and rebalances the microbiome.
These treatments are already used in hair clinics to prepare patients before a transplant.
In summary
-
SD and PSO must be treated before any transplant.
-
A healthy scalp is the foundation for grafts to anchor correctly.
-
MakeMyMask protocols offer a turnkey solution, validated in clinic.
