Hair restoration using the mini and micrografting technique is an effective and natural way of replacing hair which is lost due to male pattern baldness. We use this method to obtain a natural looking hair line which is permanant. The entire procedure is done in the office under local anesthesia. usually 500 to 1200 units are transplanted based on need and other considerations. The donor site is the occipital or the back of the scalp and this results in an invisible scar once healing is complete. The follicles will become dormant for 3 months after transplantation. growth begins after three months and the final results are seen in nine to twelve months.
