Abstract

[BACKGROUND] This article describes a technique for transplanting hair from the chest to the balding scalp.

[OBJECTIVE] The objective is to describe an alternative route of harvesting donor hair in the situation when donor scalp hair is depleted.

[METHOD] A fusiform donor harvest was removed from the sternal region. The tissue was divided into one- and two-haired micrografts and subsequently transplanted.

[RESULTS] The technique worked extremely well with good take of the hair grafts. The donor site healed inconspicuously.

[CONCLUSION] The technique of transplanting hair from the chest to the balding scalp can be a viable alternative when confronted with donor scalp hair depletion.
