June 2026 in “Journal of Craniofacial Surgery” Hair transplantation is typically safe, but scalp necrosis is a rare yet serious complication. This report details a 47-year-old male who developed parietal scalp necrosis after undergoing follicular unit extraction (FUE) with sapphire blade recipient-site creation abroad. By the 5th postoperative day, he experienced scalp pain and a necrotic eschar. Initial topical treatments failed, necessitating surgical debridement and wound care, which led to complete healing and a good cosmetic result. The case highlights the need for early detection, understanding of risk factors, and prompt treatment to prevent and manage such rare complications in hair transplantation.
