    GlossaryScalp Flaps

    surgically repositioned scalp sections to cover hair loss areas

    Scalp flaps are sections of the scalp that are surgically repositioned to cover areas of hair loss. This procedure involves cutting a portion of the scalp with healthy hair and moving it to a bald or thinning area, ensuring that the blood supply is maintained to promote healing and hair growth. It is often used in cases of significant hair loss or after trauma to the scalp.
