A Hair Follicle is the fundamental unit of hair growth and a key focus in hair restoration treatments. Located within the scalp, each follicle contains the root of the hair and is surrounded by cells that support its growth and health.
In hair transplantation, hair follicles are extracted from a donor area and implanted into a recipient site to restore hair in thinning or balding regions. Each follicle is handled with precision to preserve its viability and ensure successful transplantation.
The health and quality of hair follicles play a critical role in the effectiveness of hair restoration. Strong, healthy follicles are more likely to survive the procedure and produce natural-looking results.
Post-transplant care focuses on nurturing the transplanted follicles to promote their integration and growth. Proper scalp hygiene, hydration, and adherence to recovery guidelines are essential to maximize the success and longevity of the transplanted hair.
