Graft
What is Graft ?
A graft is a medical procedure where tissue is transplanted from one part of the body to another, or from a donor, to replace or repair damaged, injured, or missing skin, bone, or other tissues. Grafting is commonly used in cases involving burns, wounds, hair restoration, and reconstructive surgeries.
If you are dealing with a non-healing wound, hair loss, or need reconstructive care, contact us today to find out how graft treatment can help restore your health and confidence.
Types of Grafts
1. Skin Graft
Used to treat severe wounds, burns, or surgical defects.
- Split-thickness grafts: Include the top layers of skin.
- Full-thickness grafts: Include all skin layers for better cosmetic results.
2. Bone Graft
Used in orthopedic or dental surgeries to repair or regenerate bone.
3. Hair Graft
Used in hair transplantation, where hair follicles are moved from a donor area to bald or thinning areas.
4. Tissue or Organ Graft
Used in advanced procedures like corneal transplants or organ surgeries.
