Hair transplantation for men

Abstract

Men throughout history have suffered from various degrees of hair loss. Modern techniques for hair transplantation give rise to natural and long‐lasting results. In this paper we provide an overview of the procedure, including the harvesting of donor hair in the occipital scalp, and its redistribution along the frontal‐ and mid‐scalp areas. Special consideration must be made to choosing the candidates carefully and to performing their surgery in a manner that looks appropriate for all ages. We describe the role of medications for male pattern hair loss and with hair transplantation.
