    medical devices that stretch scalp skin for hair restoration

    Scalp extenders are medical devices used in hair restoration surgery to stretch the scalp skin, making it easier to cover bald areas. They work by gradually expanding the tissue, allowing for more effective hair transplant procedures or reducing the need for extensive grafting. This technique is particularly useful for patients with significant hair loss or those requiring large areas of coverage.
