    TLDR The FUE hair transplant technique provides a natural and satisfying solution for male pattern baldness.
    The document discusses a case study of a patient suffering from male androgenetic alopecia, a condition characterized by a slow and progressive decrease in hair volume and quantity due to follicular miniaturization. The study highlights the use of the follicular unit extraction (FUE) technique in hair implantation, which allows for individual extraction of follicles from the donor area without the need for stitches and without leaving visible scars. The grafts are then carefully introduced through micro-incisions in the alopecic areas, which would evolve towards baldness. The case study showed satisfactory aesthetic results within a 12-month period, with significant changes illustrated graphically. The document concludes that micro hair grafting using the FUE technique is a total solution with natural results that bring satisfaction to the patient.
