METHOD FOR HAIR GRAFTING Russian patent published in 2015 - IPC A61B17/00 A61B17/322 A61F2/10 

FIELD: medicine.

SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medicine, namely to plastic surgery, and can be used in surgical hair restoration. TrichoSciencePro v 1.1 software is used to calculate a recipient area. A phototrichogram is performed to evaluate hair follicle viability. The derived data are used to determine a required amount of hair follicles for grafting. A fragment of a skin implant is sampled from the hair area. A cosmetic stitch is applied on the formed defect. The cut-out fragment is divided on follicular grafts. A template is applied on the recipient area. Microincisions 1.0 mm in diameter are formed on 30% of the recipient area for engrafting 2 and 3 viable follicular grafts and single hair follicles. The follicular grafts are grafted therein by means of disposable needles 0.8-1.0 mm in diameter.

EFFECT: method enables taking out and engrafting the exact amount of the viable hair follicles and distributing them uniformly in the recipient areas, reducing the grafting time and increasing the graft survival, as well as provides reducing side effects by applying software, performing phototrichogram and observing the engraftment regimen.
