But what starts as one flare often turns into frequent emergency drainages, wide excision surgeries, and wounds that refuse to close. At Pilofix, they perform cleft lift surgery (also known as the Bascom flap) for pilonidal disease, a technique that reshapes the natal cleft to eliminate the environment where pilonidal disease develops. For those patients, Pilofix offers another chance to finally close this chapter of their lives. For anyone with recurring pilonidal disease or those who still have a wound that won't heal properly, Pilofix is a reminder that you don't have to keep settling. Expert, dedicated care is available, and it's accessible to those in the Northeast seeking a pilonidal surgeon.
