La technique de la réduction tonsurale a pour but de diminuer la surface de la zone alopécique et permet de ce fait de réduire le nombre de greffons nécessaires à l'obtention d'une couverture satisfaisante. Réalisée les plus souvent sous anesthésie locale, la réduction tonsurale est très utile dans le traitement des calvities masculines étendues mais également dans les alopécies cicatricielles et post-traumatiques. Il est possible de pratiquer deux, voire trois réductions tonsurales séparées de deux mois environ. Le dessin de l'exérèse dépendra de la topographie de l'alopécie. Ces interventions, qui permettent à chaque fois de retirer une surface de peau glabre d'environ trois centimètres de large sur douze à quinze centimètre de long, réduisent de ce fait le nombre de greffons nécessaires et constituent un traitement complémentaire utile et efficace de la calvitie. 3, record 1, French, - r%C3%A9duction%20tonsurale
