This recent patient fit our criteria for a large session and received 4,070 FU grafts. The majority of the grafts in the central area were done with lateral slits. The grafts in the periphery were done with sagital slits to allow the direction of the hair to change more acutely and follow existing hair.
The angle of the incision was chosen to match the exit angle and can be varied from 10 to 45 degree with either the sagital or lateral incisions.

Kg007,
It should average out to be 40grafts/cm2 overall. Typically, the density behind the two's is going to a little more dense as 3 & 4 hair grafts are placed at center top of the head. Then slightly less dense behind the 3's & 4's as you get just above the open crown area for naturalness (1 or 2 hair grafts are used here). Proximity of incisions and number of incisions in a square cm is based on giving the patient maximum density where it's most needed and what looks most natural. It's all about creating the best illusion of a full head of hair when all is said and done. JakeVig, I will definately post this patient's photos at 6 months and 12 months post op. He's already thrilled and is more than happy to share his results. I hope you're doing well. It's good to get your feedback.
