  • Patent number: 10517640
    Abstract: A micro-implanter for hair follicle includes a plunger and a hair follicle holding tube coaxially fitted around the plunger. A hair follicle may be positioned in the hair follicle holding tube below the plunger. The plunger is provided at a lower end with a stopper for limiting a depth by which the hair follicle is implanted into a mini implanting slit cut on a bald scalp. The hair follicle holding tube has a lower end formed into a tapered and narrowed section to facilitate easy insertion of the hair follicle holding tube into the mini implanting slit. When the hair follicle holding tube has been inserted into the mini implanting slit on the scalp, the plunger may be pushed forward to implant the hair follicle into the mini implanting slit.
