    involves implanting synthetic fibers into the scalp to mimic hair

    Artificial Hair Implantation, also known as Synthetic Hair Implantation or Artificial Hair Transplant, is a cosmetic procedure where synthetic fibers are implanted into the scalp to mimic natural hair. This technique is often used for individuals experiencing hair loss who are not suitable candidates for traditional hair transplants. The synthetic fibers are designed to be biocompatible, reducing the risk of rejection or infection, but the procedure may still carry risks such as inflammation or allergic reactions.
