    involves transplanting one's own hair follicles to balding areas

    Autologous Hair Transplantation, also known as Self Hair Transplant, involves taking hair follicles from one part of the patient's body (usually the back or sides of the scalp) and transplanting them to areas experiencing hair loss. This procedure is commonly used to treat conditions like androgenetic alopecia and ensures compatibility since the donor and recipient are the same person, reducing the risk of rejection or complications.
