Hair transplantation is widely recognized as the most effective current treatment for male pattern baldness. Until now, however, it has not received comprehensive treatment in a single book. This new work, the first devoted exclusively to hair transplant surgery, provides information on patient evaluation, operative planning, and the step-by-step details of surgical technique. Written by a team of leading experts, the book focuses throughout on procedures that have proven successful in the authors' own clinical experience, including: - Help in planning the right operation for all types of pattern baldness - Pointers on combining standard grafts, minigrafts, and micrografts to achieve a natural appearance - Advice on treating younger, rapidly balding patients - Information on designing surgery that ages with the patient and produces permanent, high-quality results
