Hair replacement is a cosmetic surgery procedure that replaces hair lost through balding or as a result of trauma or injury (in which case the procedure is usually reconstructive, not cosmetic). It involved taking skin from areas with healthy hair growth, and grafting it to balding areas or areas that have lost their hair cover as a result of trauma.
