Scalp laxity plays a significant role in procedures like hairline advancement and Halo surgery. Laxity depends on how tightly the scalp is connected to the bone and how easily the skin stretches.

While massaging the scalp post-surgery may help release scar tissue, it won’t dramatically change outcomes. Massage is more beneficial for revision cases where scar tissue is present. However, there’s no concrete data on its effectiveness, and each case is different.

Consulting with a surgeon is recommended before attempting any scalp massages.
