For this, the incisions which are made are very long and they are closed with the stitches. Then the surgeon will separate the removed portion which needs to be transplanted on the affected area. This helps in achieving a natural look. The disadvantage of this method is that it leaves a scar on the scalp which is noticeable.

Then these hair follicles are transplanted on the affected area. In one session of treatment, the doctor might transplant thousands or hundreds of hair. After the surgery, the scalp is covered with a bandage for a few days. The doctor will remove the stitches, after 10 days. In some cases, the patients require more than one session of treatment to achieve the desired results. The patient can go home on the same day, after the transplant.
