procedure transferring hair from body to scalp or face

Body Hair Transplantation (BHT) is a procedure where hair follicles are extracted from various parts of the body, such as the chest, back, or legs, and transplanted to areas of the scalp or face that are experiencing hair loss. This technique is particularly useful for individuals who have insufficient donor hair on their scalp, providing an alternative source of hair for restoration purposes.
