    medical procedure transplanting hair follicles to treat baldness

    Follicular cell implantation is a medical procedure used to treat hair loss, where hair follicles are extracted from a donor area (usually the back of the scalp) and implanted into areas experiencing thinning or baldness. This technique aims to restore natural hair growth by relocating healthy hair follicles to regions where they are needed.
