It is a surgical procedure that involves transferring the hair on the sides or back of the scalp (donor site) to the face. This is the same principle as a classical hair transplant, there are two methods that are:
- FUE (Extraction of Follicular Units): this is the most used technique and consists of follicle sampling by follicle.
