Most people focus on hair follicles when researching transplants—but your scalp skin type plays a critical role in the success of your procedure. In 2025, top clinics like Hairmedico assess the condition of your scalp just as seriously as the quality of your donor hair.
In this article, we explain how different scalp types influence healing, graft survival, and long-term results. We also show how Hairmedico customizes every procedure to match your skin’s needs.
High sebum production may clog follicles post-transplant
Risk of inflammation and infection increases
Requires precise post-op care and mild, non-comedogenic cleansing products
Often associated with poor circulation
May delay healing and graft anchoring
Hairmedico uses scalp hydrating protocols before surgery when needed
Common in men with dense donor areas
Extraction is more difficult; implantation requires deeper channels
Healing may take longer, but result density can be excellent
More prone to trauma and bleeding
Grafts must be handled with extreme care
Algorithmic FUE helps minimize mechanical pressure on tissue
Common in revision cases or patients with burns, injuries, or prior surgeries
Reduced vascularity makes graft survival more difficult
Hairmedico performs vascular analysis before accepting these cases
Graft survival depends on oxygen, nutrients, and stable anchoring in the skin. If the scalp is too oily, irritated, scarred, or poorly vascularized, this process becomes compromised.
Poor compatibility can lead to:
Shedding beyond the shock loss phase
Patchy growth
Scalp tension affecting direction and density
Hairmedico’s surgical planning includes a personalized scalp protocol, from incision angle to graft depth, based on each patient’s skin analysis.
Hairmedico doesn’t use a one-size-fits-all strategy. Every procedure begins with:
High-resolution scalp imaging
Elasticity, thickness, and vascularity tests
Dermatological review if necessary
AI-assisted graft distribution via Algorithmic FUE™

For patients with special conditions—like psoriasis, seborrheic dermatitis, or scarring—treatment may include:
Topical steroid or anti-fungal pre-treatment
Plasma therapy to boost vascularity
Modified implanters for better anchoring

Post-operative care isn’t universal either. Hairmedico adjusts:
Wash frequency and shampoo formula
Anti-inflammatory or anti-sebum serums
Moisturizing sprays for dry scalps
Scalp exfoliation protocols for thick skin types
All these are delivered through your custom aftercare kit, designed after surgery.
In 2025, the most successful hair transplants are no longer about how many grafts are extracted—but how well they survive. And that depends heavily on the scalp they’re implanted into.
Hairmedico stands out by treating the scalp as seriously as the hair itself. Through AI-enhanced diagnostics, adaptive techniques, and personalized aftercare, patients receive a transplant that is scientifically matched to their biology—not just their baldness.
