Objective: To present the case of an 18-year-old boy with a cleft lip scar and an obligatory need for facial hair who underwent single–follicular-unit graft hair transplantation that resulted in significant moustache hair restoration in a single procedure. Setting: The surgery was performed in an outpatient private practice setting using oral sedation and local anesthesia. Results: Advances in instrumentation technology and an increased understanding of the anatomical clustering of hair follicles into so-called “follicular units” containing one to six hairs per unit has resulted in a rapid expansion of hair restoration surgery into new areas including female–pattern alopecia, scarring alopecias, and cosmetic surgery scars. These new techniques can be employed to create natural-looking hair lines in front of artificial hair replacement systems; to improve unnatural looking, old “large-plug” hair transplants; and to correct discontinuity of eyebrows and hairlines in patients with congenital facial clefts. Increased awareness is needed to incorporate follicular-unit graft hair transplant surgery into the family of corrective surgery subspecialties.

AbstractOftentimes, multiple treatment modalities are indicated for the management of trauma to the face. When this trauma involves a hair-bearing area, such as the eyebrow, eyelid, or beard region, hair transplantation can be an effective modality. While most of these facial hair transplants are performed for elective cosmetic indications, advanced techniques of hair transplantation can assure aesthetic outcomes in the optimizing of appearance after trauma. Because hair regrowth requires a good recipient bed, adjuvant therapies to promote vascularization, such as fat transfer and platelet-rich plasma, can be applied in conjunction with hair transplantation. The authors review the indications and the essential techniques of graft harvesting by follicular unit extraction and follicular unit grafting, and recipient site formation and graft planting and management, and present different case examples illustrating these technique.

ABSTRACTTechniques in hair transplantation have evolved recently which make results look more natural. Hair restoration is one of the most exciting and innovative surgical fields in aesthetic surgery today. A precise appreciation of anatomy has allowed the useof follicular unit grafts. With better methods of harvesting and implantation, hair transplantation results represent a blend of art and science.
