Gender-Affirmation Hair Transplantation Techniques

Anthony Bared et al. Facial Plast Surg Clin North Am. 2023 Aug.

Abstract

Hair restoration can play an important role for transgender patients seeking gender-affirmation procedures. In our clinic, we have seen an increase in transgender patients seeking hair restoration. The most common hair restoration procedures performed in our clinic for the transgender patient are hairline lowering procedures, facial hair restoration procedures including eyebrow and beard transplantation, and body hair transplantation.
