title: Hair transplantation. The fourth decade.
abstract: Scalp surgical techniques for the treatment of alopecia have evolved over the past 40 years, due to the input of multiple specialties from around the world. The techniques require of the surgeon and his staff more skill, judgment, and time. Most importantly, however, positive results have increased in the eyes of both the patient and the surgeon.
