<P> Hair transplantation is a surgical technique that removes hair follicles from one part of the body , called the ' donor site ' , to a bald or balding part of the body known as the ' recipient site ' . The technique is primarily used to treat male pattern baldness . In this minimally invasive procedure , grafts containing hair follicles that are genetically resistant to balding , ( like the back of the head ) are transplanted to the bald scalp . Hair transplantation can also be used to restore eyelashes , eyebrows , beard hair , chest hair , pubic hair and to fill in scars caused by accidents or surgery such as face - lifts and previous hair transplants . Hair transplantation differs from skin grafting in that grafts contain almost all of the epidermis and dermis surrounding the hair follicle , and many tiny grafts are transplanted rather than a single strip of skin . </P>
