What is a Hair Transplant?
A hair transplant is a surgical procedure that moves hair follicles from one part of the body (typically the back of the scalp) to thinning or balding areas. Popular techniques like FUE (Follicular Unit Extraction) and FUT (Follicular Unit Transplantation) make it possible to achieve natural, permanent results with minimal downtime.

Minimal scarring, faster recovery

Removes a strip of scalp tissue
More grafts per session
