[Treatment of male baldness exclusively with mini-grafts]

Abstract:
With regard to the treatment of alopecia, the so-called bunch effect and the creation of an abrupt hair line are a major problem of the conventional method of hair transplantation. Employing a recently developed technique, autologous miniature grafts bearing 3-4 or 5-6 hair follicles are implanted into randomly distributed recipient punch holes. By means of this technique, we are able to achieve aesthetically acceptable hair growth even after a single operating session.
