Hair restoration for the crown may be the right answer for those who seriously want to address the baldness of their vertex. However, one of the main challenges faced by conventional harvesting methods (which only use follicles from the head) is acquiring enough grafts to sufficiently cover the crown area.

The required amount of coverage will be different in each case. This is because some people are in a more advanced state of baldness compared to others. Therefore, the available donors from the head may be enough for some procedures. But in other cases, additional grafts would be needed.

Body Follicles For Crown Restoration

Hair from body regions can be used to provided additional volume to supplement the donor supply from the head. For patients with abundant amounts of body hair, it is possible to acquire thousands of grafts, up to 25K. And this would certainly enable excellent coverage for the most severe forms of crown baldness.

The Use Of Body Hair Follicles

Body hair follicles are used in a variety of ways. Hair follicles from the nape or behind the ears are used to create the hairline, since the hair textures are of similar caliber. It not only provides density, but it provides the most natural look. Body hair follicles also are used in an eyebrow and eyelash transplant where patients want to restore hair for a fuller looking brow or lash. Hair follicles from the leg are used. Global coverage is most patients concern. By using body hair follicles one can return to a state of normalcy.

The Major Benefits Of Body Hair Follicles

Aside from body hair follicles providing global coverage, it is a minimally invasive procedure that allows the patient to return to their daily lifestyle shortly after the procedure. It also allows for patients to keep the transplant in disguise, if they choose not to disclose with anyone, since there are no staples or stitches used. The best benefit of this procedure compared to the traditional hair restoration procedure is that it does not leave any scars. The hair follicles are harvested carefully using specialized tools that do not damage the surrounding area or the follicle. It also allows for the donor hair sites to heal within seven days after the transplant. Even those who are left with a previous scar have the option to cover it by using body hair transplant.
