    GlossarySubcision

    Subcision is a minimally invasive surgical procedure used to treat various skin conditions, including hair loss, by breaking up fibrous tissue that may be contributing to scarring or tethering of the skin. In the context of hair loss, subcision can help improve blood flow and promote the release of growth factors in the scalp, potentially enhancing hair follicle health and stimulating hair regrowth. Key distinguishing characteristics of subcision include its focus on the underlying connective tissue rather than the surface skin, and its ability to create a more favorable environment for hair follicles to thrive.
