    hair restoration using small grafts of 3-8 follicles

    Minigrafting is a hair restoration technique where small grafts, typically containing 3-8 hair follicles, are transplanted from a donor area (usually the back of the scalp) to a balding or thinning area. This method aims to create a more natural-looking hairline and density compared to older techniques that used larger grafts.
