Scalp Massage

Home / Scalp Massage
Prior to surgery we recommend that our patients improve their scalp laxity by firmly massaging their scalp. By carrying out this excercise for 15 - 20 minutes three or four times a day (for a total of one hour) beginning a few weeks prior to surgery, the patient can play a vital role in improving their surgical outcome.

Improving scalp laxity serves two important functions. Firstly, by allowing for the removal of a wider strip, the yield of "micrografts" will be greater. Secondly, by reducing tension along the donor region, the healing of the donor scar will be optimized.

Client Review


"Dr. Unger is extremely knowledgeable about hair loss and its causes. She took time asking and answering questions and was the first doctor to give me an accurate diagnosis. Her kindness and professionalism were very much appreciated and I left her office feeling hopeful and positive. I could not recommend her more highly. "
