MikroFUE

How is it possible for me to send under the alias of Longevita? Longevita is the internet representative of Dr. Karadeniz. ( as you can see from http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/178449-2000-grafts-dr-karadeniz.html) They work together. I contacted to them and told them about this thread and the accusations, they said they will make their own explanations. I know that Gravedigger is a patient of Maral Klinik. I will try to send messages to lifeisbeautiful, fisherman and truthful to learn their explanations. Bill, did any of those accounts share the same IP at the same time? I remember a couple of weeks ago, you mentioned some of those accounts (I forgot the names?) never shared the same IP. PS: I know Maral informed you that somebody else will post using this account soon. I have not followed recent posts closely

JUST TO CLARIFY OUR SURGİCAL TECHNİQUE: No, we do not use any drills, we use custom made surgical blades and lateral slit technique as (almost) all clinics do. This is the most commonly used and the best technique for slits. Our technique is clear in these threads: http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/177234-maral-klinik-grade-5-6-hair-loss-restoration-1st-session-5000-mikrofue-grafts.html http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/177629-4900-grafts-fue-dr-maral-3.html http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/177318-dr-maral-24-10-2014-5200-grafts-nw6.html http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/177534-fue-4750-grafts-grade-6-dr-maral-clinic-nov-23-2014-a.html (I think PupDaddy's fabricated comment misleaded KO) Custom made means, depending lenght and diameter of the grafts of an individual patient, we adjust the lenght and size of the blade and make the slits using the lateral slit method. The direction of the slits should be parallel to the direction of the blood vessels (front-back direction) to protect them and less bleeding. The direction of the slits into the skin is in accordance with the growth direction of the hairs in different region of the scalp to ensure natural appearance. This is well-known and the most advanced tecnique for the incisions applied in all clinics and in Maral Klinik as well. Why lateral slit technique is the most commonly used technique? Because blades are thin and make thin scratchs. regardless the graft survived or not, there will be no scar (totally scarless) at the end even if the patient have razor shave. Nobody used and uses any drill for incisions. Anyway, pen implantation (because the tip of the pen is circular) opens the slit like a hole, it is not a slit in fact. If the graft(s) does not survive, there may be circular visible scar(s) left behind (it may just be visible with razor shave).

Just to clarify HT nomenclature, (Maybe KO and GraveD11igger are talking about the same thing, but?) Depending on the technique, HT operations are done in 2 or 3 main stages. Nowadays, most of the clinics use 3-staged technique. Note: FUT or FUE is just different techniques of Stage 1. The procedures are the same during Stage 2 and 3. STAGE 1; is for graft removal and preparation; Technique might be FUT, manual FUE or Mikromotor-powered FUE (all so-called robotic devices are variations of Mikromotor-powered FUE) At the end of this stage, all grafts are ready for implantation or insertion. STAGE 2; is for opening the channels, or incisions. At the end of this stage, all channels (slits, holes or incisions) are ready to be filled (implanted or inserted) with grafts. STAGE 3; is for graft implantation or graft insertion ; is for filling the channels with grafts. Mikroforceps are used. At the end of this stage, operation finishes. Mikroforcep; Microsurgical instrument to hold the grafts during implantation (insertion to the channels) If pen-implanter or variations of pen is used for graft implantation (insertion), there are only 2 stages. STAGE 1: Graft removal, everything is the same as 3-staged procedure; Technique might be FUT or Mikromotor-powered FUE but this is very rare and exceptional, generally manual FUE is used. STAGE 2: There is no channel opening (incisions, or slits), grafts are placed into the pen, and insertion of the pen into the skin both open the channel (or hole) and implant (or insert) the graft. That said, channel opening and implantation occur at the same time and continue one by one insertion of the grafts. NOTE: Very rare, almost totally abandoned variation of 3 staged procedure is; stage 2 and stage 3 is done one by one. Surgeon opens one channel and technician inserts one graft to this channel immediately and the graft implantation continues like this until all grafts are inserted. This technique was tried but abandoned later, because it is much more time consuming and cause more rebound fenomena. Rebound fenomena: During implantation, when trying to insert a graft, self extraction of neighboring readily inserted grafts, they need to be re-inserted. Today, most clinics use 3-staged procedure and Mikroforceps-implantation. Some rare clinics which use manual FUE graft extraction use pen implantation as a 2-staged procedure. FUT surgeons have almost never used pen implantation. Maral Klinik has experience on all the techniques and stages of HT, including FUT, manual FUE graft extraction and pen implantation. We abandoned all others years ago and we now only offer Mikromotor powered FUE as a 3-staged procedure.

It is true that our clinic is inexpensive but this has nothing to do with technicians and whether they conduct the operations or not. HT is another plastic surgery operation like the others ,ie: rinoplasty.Dr. Maral follows a price policy accordingly in order to be fair and balanced. Prices are the same for Turkish and foreigner patients. Maral Klinik HT team technicians have at least 6 years of field experience. The chief technician who opens channels has 10 years of experience. Dr. Maral's contribution and involvement in operations has been summarized very well in this thread: http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/177919-4th-hair-transplant-3700-grafts-maral-clinic.html. He has to do with the hardest work of HT.

BUSA, Thanks for your criticism. I assume the word aggressive hairline refers to a low (positioned) new hairline. This is not an agressive hairline. In fact it's balanced, well-designed with a natural hairline. Scotman and Dr. Maral designed it preoperatively and they both agreed on the hairline . Scotman is 53 years old (hairloss reached last stage) with the highest quality and capacity of donor area and he posseses the capacity and charactheristics of Class 1 donor hair, (caucasian type) coming from the northern part of the world, which has the potential for any hairline position and design. But lowering the hairline would mean higher graft demand for the hair loss area, and it might require one more session for closure of the top area. And, lower hairline at age 53 would not appear so natural. Balanced hairline, good donor area capacity, grafts quality, existence of original hairs over hair loss area and the technical expertise of Maral Klinik HT team all made it possible to give good coverage in this patient's NW6 hair loss. This is not the case with every patient. I mean, agressive low hairline might not be possible with every patient. Age, hair loss pattern, supply and demands in another words determines the hairline position and shape. Hairline can always be adjusted in the 2nd HT session in patients with grade 6 or 7 hair loss.

BUSA, Thanks for your criticism, Here are 2 examples (pictures attached) from the forum, how channels are opened by the doctors. As you mentioned, doctors mostly follow this pattern, more or less, to open channels. That said, there is nothing related to a doctor or technician issue. Anyway, it is of course so important that the channels are opened by very experienced HT team members, who have many years of experience on that, but regardless of doc or technicians. When it comes to a large scale FUE, where both front and middle upper areas are treated at the same time, this type of channel opening becomes more important, because it should secure enough blood supply among the grafts around the upper areas.

Refuse and BUSA, Thank you for your constructive criticism and noticing the pattern of the channels. This pattern is seen immediately after the procedure and will dissapear when hair grows. The result will look natural and the growing hairs will turn out to be evenly distributed. This pattern appears during channel opening, because it keeps the blood circulation intact among the grafts. Blood vessels run parallel to the channels and less damage occurs to them by opening these channels this way. The blood circulation among the grafts should be preserved immediately after the transplantion. Each graft needs to be taken care of to guaranty good blood circulation and secure their survival. Anyway, when we transplant the optimum number of grafts densely all over the front area for NW1-3 hair loss this pattern may not appear, because of the dense packaging on the very front area and large blood vessels supply blood directly there. The patterns disappear after head washing, cleaning all crusts off or when hair grows. TJ2014 already stated this fact.. We hope Katchal posts his new pictures after his hair cleaning finishes.

Blake, OK, I still respect, so I need your permission to reply the criticism here in this thread: http://www.hairrestorationnetwork.com/eve/177729-if-doctor-recommended-but-not-coalition-he-inferior.html All we now who DrM is,, and I am taking all screnshots now. and KO insulted the whole country, I reported it to Bill and Dr. Maral will report the Health Authorities in Turkey in case we need.

Why are you so offensive? I do not think you are a problem. You are supportive of my job. This was the opinion of an actual and senior member of the HTN. Blake removed the content, and we respect. You can be sure about its reality, and the actual patient can prove that. I am taking screenshots of the posts in case legal issues may develop between us. You can be also sure that we are totally legal. And yes, we are Ferrari-quality hair mill of HT. (sorry I promoted ourselves here, please do not give me reasons for that, this is my job, I should do the best)

BTW, until we wait Blake's permission, lets read e-mailings between Dr. Maral and one of the most senior and kind members of HTN. I hope you will glory in your accomplish. Clues can be send to moderators on request. **inappropriate content removed by moderator**

Yes, but he asked for here, not privately, and I am waiting for Blake's permission now. And be sure that the answer will also be related to reply criticism about us in another thread. (as usual, I am here just to reply criticism now)

Do not take it offensively but are you a moderator? I just want to be transparent and educate all community who needs it.

Future_Doc, I would like to aswer to sj14?s post . It will be educational. Is that possible?

Pup, I will clarify my words, but to make a complete one; please show me one example that I denigrate any of member doctors? And, please read my signature carefully,
