Just want you to know, I'm a three-time customer of Dr. Panine (CHICAGO). I've had six total hair-transplants. Three with Dr. Christopher Gencheff who has retired, and three strip hair-transplants with Dr. Panine. I've known Dr. Panine for over three years, Stuart has been with both Doctors almost 30 years (totally committed, to his job), Marda (head nurse) has been with the both Doctors over 20 years, and Kinga who did the majority of my follicular graph insertions last time, is a gem. If you need approx. 1400 graphs, I'm sure Dr. Panine can provide this service with excellent results. I've only dealt with these two Doctors, but trust me if you’re concerned about the strip scar, you can apply good hair products. Good luck in your surgery-marcushair.
