Hair transplantation is a surgical technique that removes hair follicles from one part of the body, called the ‘donor site’, to a bald or balding part of the body known as the ‘recipient site’. The technique is primarily used to treat male pattern baldness. In this minimally invasive procedure, grafts containing hair follicles that are genetically resistant to balding (like the back of the head) are transplanted to the bald scalp.
Anyone with a balding scalp and also a good donor area can undergo hair transplant surgery
Donor area is the area from which hair follicle grafts are extracted. This includes the back of the scalp.
Additional factors like hair color and texture also influence the hair transplant results.

Follicular Unit Extraction is a robotic assisted bio FUE hair transplant procedure. It is portrayed by tissue-enriched grafts and it is a method in which minimal invasive hair repair procedure is done. It is a type of hair transplant surgery where a patient is being given local anaesthesia and a large number of hair follicles are picked from a huge donor area that is where there are a higher number of hair follicles to increase the graft counts. After this, the cosmetic plastic surgeon and the team cut the hair follicle and these follicles are transplanted to the affected region. This procedure is done in many sessions. The usual session time is between 40 minutes and 1 hour.
