Body Hair Transplant (BHT) is a versatile hair restoration technique that uses hair from various parts of the body, such as the chest, beard, or legs, for transplantation. This method is particularly beneficial for individuals with limited donor hair on their scalp.
The procedure involves extracting hair follicles from the chosen donor area using techniques like Follicular Unit Extraction (FUE). These follicles are then transplanted to the recipient site, such as the scalp, eyebrows, or beard, depending on the patient’s needs.
BHT requires careful consideration of the characteristics of body hair, such as texture, curl, and growth cycle, to ensure compatibility with the recipient area. Surgeons meticulously plan the placement of each follicle to achieve natural-looking results.
Patients benefit from the flexibility of using body hair for restoration, expanding the options for individuals with extensive hair loss. Recovery is generally straightforward, and the results are durable and aesthetically pleasing when paired with proper care and maintenance.
