If ultra thin graft and dense packing are the best techniques; I already use it for more than 10 years.
For the past 10 years, I have performed hundreds of eyebrow transplantation. The ultra fine graft is exactly the size been used.
3 ultra thin graft photos took back in 2001 and 2002
(The grafts come with longer hair because they are used for eyebrow transplantation. With longer hair, patients can see immediate result and it also enables us to check the hair direction easily.)
I would like to present a typical eyebrow transplant that I did yesterday (December 7, 2006.) The patient is an Asian male. Each brow is about 5 cm in length, average width is 0.6 cm, and the area is 3 cm2. The total area for both eyebrows is approximately 6 cm2. We transplanted 555 grafts. This is about 92 grafts per cm2. I will post a series of zoom-in photos next week.
Our surgical team has the ability to perform ultra thin graft and extremely dense packing, but I only limit it to certain area.
