Abstract
To date, hair transplantation (HTS) has a history of nearly 210 years, which involves the transplantation of hair, beard, eyebrows, eyelashes and pubic hair; however, HTS is also a relatively tedious surgical procedure, involving the evaluation and design of the recipient site, selection of the donor area, the calculation of hair follicle (HF) number, separation and preservation of HFs and the process of HF implantation. Each of these steps is closely related to the visual post-operative effects. Based on our experience, the aesthetic result of HTS mainly relies on some indicators, including selection of the donor site, direction and angle of grafted hairs, density and survival rate of implanted HFs. We believe that good results can be achieved as long as attention is paid to the above four points.
