  • Title: The use of tissue expansion for the treatment of burn scar alopecia.
    Author: Esposito C, Dado DV.
    Journal: Plast Surg Nurs; 1997; 17(1):11-5. PubMed ID: 9171697.
    Abstract:
    Tissue expansion is an ideal reconstructive procedure for burn scar alopecia. Donor tissue is generated in situ, allowing for the use of hair-bearing tissue to reconstruct an area of alopecia. The process of tissue expansion results in a redistribution of the remaining hair follicles to replace the area of alopecia.
