Methods of hair transplant varies from extending scalp to increase the area of hair growth, to transferring individual hair follicles to desirable areas.
Hair strands that have been moved to another part of the same person’s body continue to grow looking natural, with very little side effects.
Human hair grow in groups of 1~4 strands from each follicle, which are called “follicular units.”
50% of Koreans usually grow two hair strands from each follicle, 30% one per follicle, and those with three to four strands per follicle consist of 20% of the population.
This knowledge has made follicular unit-based hair transplants a popular practice these days.

Implanting as packages with multiple hair strands from each Follicle intact.
Implantation of single hair strands that are separated from their natural groups.
Damaging follicles during the separation process lowers their survivability and slows down hair growth.
