- In follicular unit hair transplantation,
- donor hair is harvested by excising a narrow strip of scalp from the donor area --- an area at the back of the head that is resistant to hair loss.
- The production of follicular unit grafts from the donor scalp requires a two-stage process of firstly slivering the ellipse into very fine scalp sections and then dissection of the follicular units from these slivers.
- latest hair transplant surgical techniques: follicular unit transplantation.
- Both stages of this process are accomplished by the use of the stereoscopic dissecting microscope.
- Each follicular unit in the donor strip contains one to four hairs.
