Upper and Lower Trichophytic Closure with Wavy Two-Layered Closure for Optimal Hair Transplantation Scar

The document discussed the evolution and improvement of trichophytic closure techniques in hair transplantation surgery. Initially introduced in the mid-1970s for facelift and flap procedures, the technique was adapted for hair restoration by Drs. Patrick Frechet, Paul Rose, and Mario Marzola in 2005. The addition of a wavy two-layer closure to both upper and lower trichophytic closures, as reported in 2009, further enhanced the aesthetic outcome of donor scars, achieving an invisible scar in over 95% of patients. The study emphasized the importance of tailoring the approach to individual patient characteristics to ensure optimal results.
