Senior Member uncjim Posted December 6, 2003 Senior Member Share Posted December 6, 2003 It's essential that a clinic use high powered microscopes and have this information at hand for the results to be "top notch", as the location of the 1,2,3s is vital. As to whether it's routine to give this information to the patient, I don't know, but I don't see why it shouldn't be forthcoming. Dr.Wong did give me a final tally before the insertion of the grafts was completed.

Regular Member FoxLox Posted December 6, 2003 Regular Member Share Posted December 6, 2003 Jozef- I agree with uncjim, the follicular units should be counted. Dr. Lehr gave me the tally during the procedure as well. I see no reason why a good and honest doctor wouldn't provide the patient with this information.
