Micro Graft Hair Transplantation
It is not mainstream technology today.
However it still used today and normally be used in the middle
of the scalp to add hair density.
Micro grafting popularity grew until the mid 90s. It is a
hair restoration procedure for transplanting 1 - 2 hairs from
donor areas on the scalp. Micro graft is inserted into tiny
punctures in the skin and mini-grafts into extremely small (0.5
mm to 2 mm) openings. Micro-graft hair transplants use larger
grafts to create density, and smaller grafts to produce a
natural look.
The greatest disadvantage of Micro grafting is the graft sizes
are arbitrarily determined by the doctor who cuts the donor
tissue into the size pieces that he wants. However, the graft
sizes of Follicular Unit Transplantation are determined by
nature. Another major difference from FUT is that micro graft
does not use high-powered microscopes to trimming the donor
tissue.

Mini Graft Hair Transplantation - Outdated of hair transplants
technique
Mini graft is a name change from hair plugs. It is a hair
restoration procedure for transplanting 6 - 12 hairs from donor
areas on the scalp. It is unnatural and easy lead to the head of
a child's doll. Micrografts were frequently damaged during the
removal process or were too fragile to survive.
Laser Hair Transplantation - Outdated technique no longer being widely used
Laser hair transplants is a procedure that using a laser to
make the holes to put the grafts into. Laser can minimize the
bleeding and thus a patient will heal much faster. However, that
blood is require for the new transplanted grafts to grow.
Laser
tends to clog the blood almost instantly and there is less of a
chance for fresh living blood in the transplanted site to
nourish the grafts. In some cases, this may affect the number of
grafts that will eventually grow. Laser also caused damage to
the skin and often scarring and poor growth.
