What is body hair transplant?

Body Hair to scalp restoration is the procedure where body hair grafts are used as donor hairs to help fill areas of hair loss.

For decades hair transplant surgeons harvested hair from only the patients head which provided a donor supply of approximately 5-7,000 follicles.
