    Scalp surgery refers to a variety of surgical procedures performed on the scalp, often to address issues such as hair loss, scalp injuries, or skin conditions. Common types include hair transplant surgery, where hair follicles are moved from one part of the body to the scalp, and excision of lesions or tumors. These procedures can be both cosmetic and medically necessary, depending on the underlying condition.
