Abstract
With the conventional hair transplantation method of Okuda-Orentreich, the tuft effect and the creation of an abrupt hairline have been major problems. In the method presented here, minigrafts are exclusively distributed and transplanted over the entire surface. Through the use of this technique a more aesthetic pattern of hair growth is achieved than was possible before, even after only one treatment.
