TLDR Micrografts can effectively restore pubic hair, and using the right technique is crucial for natural-looking results.
In 2006, researchers Shinmyo, Nahas, and Ferreira presented guidelines for pubic hair restoration using follicular micrografts. The study was based on the observation that pubic hair loss, while common, was rarely addressed in medical literature. The researchers outlined a specific demarcation technique based on anatomical parameters for the implantation of hair follicles. The procedure, performed under local anesthesia, involved the insertion of micrografts at a specific angle and direction to promote natural-looking results. The study concluded that the use of micrografts for pubic hair restoration was a beneficial procedure for patients experiencing hair loss in this area, and that the described demarcation and technical details were crucial for achieving a natural result. The study did not specify the number of patients involved.
