What is a Hair Transplant for Men?
A hair transplant is a cosmetic medical procedure that involves relocating healthy hair follicles from donor areas (typically the back or sides of the scalp) to balding or thinning areas, including:
- Frontal hairline
- Crown (vertex)
- Mid-scalp region
- Temples and sides
The procedure is performed under local anesthesia, is completely safe, and delivers long-lasting, natural-looking results.
