The Influence of 3% Hydrogen Peroxide on the Survival Rate of Hair Grafts When Used as an Antiseptic Solution for Surgical Wound Care: Experience with Five Patients

Abstract

We think surgical wound care with 3% hydrogen peroxide during hair restoration surgery does not affect the survival rate of hair grafts when compared with normal saline. We also need further evaluation with larger participants to overcome small sample size and to gather other information.
