GlossaryGraft Handling

careful management of hair follicles during transplant procedures

Graft handling refers to the careful management and preparation of hair follicles during a hair transplant procedure. This involves extracting, storing, and implanting the grafts in a way that ensures their viability and maximizes the success of the transplant. Proper graft handling is crucial to prevent damage to the follicles and to promote optimal hair growth post-surgery.
