TLDR Asian hair restoration surgery requires different methods due to the unique characteristics of Asian hair, such as its sparseness and coarseness.
The document "Hair Restoration Surgery in Asians" from 2009 is a comprehensive text that discusses the unique aspects of hair restoration surgery in Asian patients. The authors noted that Asian hair tends to be more sparse and coarse than Caucasian hair, necessitating adaptations in transplantation procedures. The book covers a wide range of topics, including the history of hair transplantation, differences in Asian hair, consultation and planning, hairline design, and medical treatment. It also discusses regional transplantation such as eyebrows, eyelashes, sideburns, beards, and mustaches, in addition to the usual scalp hair restoration. The authors aimed to provide a complete knowledge of hair restoration surgery and a quick, easy-to-use reference on Asian hair and the differences in patients' demands.
