    small sections of hair-bearing tissue used in hair transplants

    Minigrafts, also known as mini-grafts, are small sections of hair-bearing tissue typically containing 2-4 hair follicles. They are used in hair transplantation procedures to create a more natural-looking hairline and to fill in areas of thinning hair. This technique allows for a denser and more aesthetically pleasing result compared to older methods that used larger grafts.
