Hair transplantation is a surgical procedure that involves moving hair follicles from one part of the body, typically the back or sides of the scalp, to areas experiencing hair loss. This technique is commonly used to treat conditions like androgenetic alopecia, which is a common form of hair loss in both men and women.
The procedure can be performed using two main methods: FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation) and FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction). In FUT, a strip of skin with hair follicles is removed, while in FUE, individual follicles are extracted directly. Both methods aim to restore a natural-looking hairline and improve overall hair density.
