GlossaryGraft Dissection

careful separation of hair follicles from donor tissue

Graft dissection is a crucial step in hair transplant surgery where individual hair follicles are carefully separated from a strip of donor tissue. This process ensures that each follicle is intact and viable for transplantation, which is essential for achieving natural-looking results and promoting successful hair growth in the recipient area.
