A hair transplant is a surgical procedure to improve baldness. Description During a hair transplant, hairs are moved from an area of thick growth to bald areas. Most hair transplants are done in a doctors office. The procedure is performed as follows: You receive local anesthesia to numb the scalp. You may also receive medicine to relax you. Your scalp is thoroughly cleaned. A strip of your hairy scalp is removed using a scalpel (surgical knife) and set aside. This area of your scalp is called the donor area. The scalp is closed using tiny stitches. Small groups of hairs, or individual hairs, are carefully separated out from the removed scalp. The bald areas that will receive these healthy hairs are cleaned. These areas of your scalp are called the recipient areas. Tiny cuts are made in the bald area. Healthy hairs are carefully placed in the cuts. During a single treatment session, hundreds or even thousands of hairs may be transplanted.
