Hair Transplant

A hair transplant is a surgical procedure used to treat hair loss by moving hair follicles from one part of the body (the donor site) to a bald or thinning part (the recipient site). It is primarily used to treat male pattern baldness but can also be used for women experiencing significant hair loss, and for restoring eyebrows, eyelashes, beard hair, and hair in areas affected by surgery or trauma. Also known as strip harvesting, this method involves removing a strip of skin with hair from the donor area, usually the back of the head. The strip is then divided into individual follicular units which are transplanted to the recipient area. It is crucial to select a board-certified surgeon with extensive experience in hair transplantation. Reviewing before-and-after photos of previous patients and reading testimonials can help in making an informed decision.
