Senior Member the B spot Posted December 10, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted December 10, 2006 Yeah, I think they are in the process of updating the website. As far as mega-sessions, anything 1800-2500 are still mega-sessions, to be honest. We are just used to seeing sessions of 2500 to 4500 grafts these days, mega-mega sessions. Or, we see Ultra-mega sessions 4500 to 7500 grafts in one pass. I would like it if Doc's could get together and define each category, but with sub-follicular division and other methods, it gets very confusing. Anyway, I know that I am going for as many as possible on Jan 3rd, which could be 3000 or 5000. As far as I can tell, I get no sense of concern from Dr. Shapiro that this will "tax him" or his staff greatly, etc... Aside from reiterating some of the potential complications of doing larger sessions, I think Dr. Shapiro is as excited as I am about doing the session. Anyway, read the good educational information on the consultation resource page and contact Matt like stumper suggested. There is no real "limit" on session sizes, from what I understand, but a consult will clear that up as well. Let Matt know about the website as well. Hope this helps!

Senior Member troy Posted December 10, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted December 10, 2006 no offense Janna, I love you and everyone at shapiro but your website sucks, i told matt that too, it is a terrible representation of how wonderfull you are. Your reputation is gold. Its interesting your marketing(atleast your website) is subpar, you do have a lot of good info, but could do so much better and you are swamped with buisness. Then you have bosley who market the heck out of themselves and give subpar work. NervousNelly, if you visit the clinic they are all truely wonderfull people. You will be so impressed on the upside if you only have info from their website. you can view my blog to the the kind of work they produce.

Senior Member Janna Posted December 10, 2006 Senior Member Share Posted December 10, 2006 No offense taken Troy. The website is subpar cuz I'm not in charge of it (ha, ha, ha). The good doc is too preoccupied with perfecting the HT technique to concentrate on the website. I've been hearing for years that the website is being worked on. I'm pretty sure we will get it updated soon. I'll keep bugging him.
