Follicular Unit Transplantation is a modern hair restoration technique where the hair is transplanted in groups of 1-4 hairs – exactly as it grows in nature. It is a major advance over the older hair transplantation procedures that used larger grafts and often produced a pluggy, unnatural look. In a properly performed follicular unit transplant, the results will mimic the way hair grows in nature and will be undetectable as a hair transplant.
