Finally, the micro grafts will be finished by being divided into individual grafts by using a stereomicroscope. The surgical team will make a variety of grafts from eight-shaft mini grafts to one or two shaft micro grafts. These will be moved during hair transplant to the recipient sites so that the hair will have a natural hairline with fullness on top. Up-to-date techniques for hair transplant use only the follicular unit and not a large amount of surrounding tissue for the donor grafts.

If you look under a microscope at a scalp, you can see follicular units growing in just this way.

When he gives the ok, the surgical technicians again take over the patient's care. The grafts will be more permanently set into place when the technicians dry them by blowing a cool blow dryer across them.
