Did you know that there is a procedure designed to treat male pattern baldness? The procedure is called “Follicular Unit Transplantation” and it is a bit different from “Hair Implant”.
Hair implant requires grafting (skin grafting) which include dermis and epidermis along with the hair follicles. Follicular Unit Transplantation is different in that it transplants only the hair follicle and it’s done individually.
Each follicle in its natural state contains up to 4 hairs and the modern day hair transplantation perfectly mimics this pattern, thus making your transplanted hair look as natural as the real deal.
Hair transplant procedure in its infancy was thought to mimic the real hair but it was believed that it could not grow it like the original. As the study in hair transplant advanced soon they realized the transplanted hair could grow just as well as the original.
The same type of procedure is used to repair scars, replace eyelashes and eyebrows.
