    GlossaryLinear Scar

    straight-line mark on skin from surgery or deep cuts

    A linear scar is a type of scar that appears as a straight line on the skin, often resulting from surgical incisions or deep cuts that have healed. In the context of hair transplantation, a linear scar can occur in the donor area where a strip of scalp is removed, which is then sutured back together, leaving a thin, linear mark.
