ABSTRACT:
A method is disclosed for implanting hair into human skin comprising the steps of inserting an end of a hollow outer needle into skin to form a pit in the surface thereof, sliding an inner needle within the outer needle to position an end of the inner needle supporting a bulbous end of a hair within the skin pit adjacent the end of the outer needle, and extracting the outer and inner needles from the skin pit.
Apparatus is also disclosed for implanting hair into human skin which apparatus comprises a hollow outer needle having a relatively sharp end for piercing skin, a hollow inner needle slidably disposed within the hollow outer needle and having a centrally apertured relatively blunt end for receiving a hair therethrough and for supporting a bulbous hair end on the surface thereof, and means for moving the inner needle blunt end between positions remote and positions closely adjacent the outer needle sharp end.
Hair implantation apparatus is further described comprising a needle having a slot formed in an injection end thereof from which a passageway extends. A hairlike filament is loosely positioned within the needle passageway with an anchor at one end thereof in the shape of an arrowhead slidably positioned within the needle slot.
