    Glossary Occipital Scalp

    area at the back of the head over occipital bone

    The occipital scalp refers to the area of the scalp located at the back of the head, overlying the occipital bone. This region is significant in both medical and cosmetic contexts, as it is often examined in cases of hair loss (alopecia) and is a common donor site for hair transplant procedures due to its typically dense and resilient hair growth.
