The surgical options for male pattern alopecia are discussed with emphasis on the most recent and widely accepted technique, combination micrografting. Candidate selection is standardized and emphasized, along with possible complications, techniques, and postoperative care. A variety of results are shown relative to candidate selection which demonstrate the natural and aesthetically pleasing nature of modern hair transplants.
