Q: Hair Regrowth After Moles Removed on My Head

Hi, I have 15 scars all over my head that do not grow hair anymore because I had moles removed about 5 years ago. This forces me to keep my hair long. Does anyone know of any ways to stimulate hair growth on these scars?

Surgical incisions can result in scar tissue that will not produce hair (the hair follicles on the scalp are destroyed and this results in permanent bald patches).
Have you considered semi-permanent attachment methods or hair transplant?
What was the reason for mole removal, cosmetic or suspected cancer potential?

Usually, if there is no regrowth of hair within 6 months after the trauma (cutting off the moles), transplantation is considered.
Were the moles proved cancerous?
