Hair preserving surgical device

Abstract

A hair preservation surgical device configured to form and at least partially maintain a part or separation among a plurality of hair strands of a patient. A plurality of hair engagement bodies of the device can engage and pull a portion of the plurality of hair strands via displacement of the surgical device, including displacement resulting from deformation of the device, to at least assist in retaining the engaged hair strands away from the part. The surgical device can further be displaced such that an access aperture of the device is positioned over the part. The access aperture can extend through the surgical device and provide a location for performances of surgical procedures at, and through, the location of the part. Attachment mechanisms can be used to engage one or more anchors of the device to selectively secure the device to the patient, including to the scalp of the patient.
