Abstract

The donor area should be treated as a vital,nonrenewable resource. Its proper, efficient use and preservation remains the cornerstone of successful transplantation by way of grafting. Evaluation of donor hair characteristics and density are essential to proper candidate selection and surgical planning. Careful donor strip removal or careful FUE are vital to avoid transection of the follicles and to maximize the surgical result.
