Tissue expanders have been used in multiple body sites. We successfully used the Radovan tissue expander in the scalp of patients with cicatricial alopecia and in hair replacement surgery for male pattern alopecia. The expander is placed in the subgaleal plane beneath a hairbearing area and is inflated over a six- to eight-week period. In a second procedure, the device is removed and the bald area is excised. Closure of the defect is accomplished, with the stretched hairbearing scalp replacing the area of alopecia. Scalp reduction and pedicle scalp flap procedures have benefited by preliminary scalp expansion.
组织扩张器已应用于多个身体部位。我们成功地将拉多万组织扩张器用于瘢痕性脱发患者的头皮以及男性型脱发的毛发置换手术。扩张器置于有毛发区域下方的帽状腱膜下平面，并在6至8周的时间内进行充气。在第二步手术中，取出该装置并切除秃发区域。通过拉伸有毛发的头皮来替代脱发区域，完成缺损的闭合。初步的头皮扩张使头皮缩减术和带蒂头皮瓣手术受益。
