Linear scleroderma, also known as “en coup de sabre”, is a subtype of localized scleroderma. It develops in the area of the forehead and hairy part of the head, causing alopecia of the affected area (Figure 1). The applied aesthetic correction involves filling the defect on the forehead and capillitium with nano lipofilling, which is followed two months later by performing FUE hair transplantation (Figure. 2, 4). The combination of these procedures allows simultaneous filling of the hypotrophic scar, as well as a more secure and rapid growth of the hair grafts. Thus, a good, long-lasting and patientsatisfying aesthetic result is achieved.
