|---|---|---|---|---|
| How grafts are taken | A strip of scalp is removed and divided | Whole follicles removed one by one | Whole follicles removed one by one | Only part of each follicle removed |
| How grafts are placed | Into small incisions | Into small incisions | With an implanter pen, without separate incisions | With patented micro-instruments, after a patented growth medium |

| Scarring | A line across the back of the head | Small dot scars | Small dot scars | Designed for minimal scarring* |
What the donor area means for you
The donor area is limited. With techniques that remove whole follicles, every graft taken is gone from the back of the head for good. HST takes only part of each follicle and leaves the stem cells behind, which matters if you may need more than one session.*
