Senior Member lorenzo Posted September 23, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted September 23, 2011 (edited) I met an italian patient a couple of days before surgery. This was before he had been to the clinic and wanted to know my opinion. He was very concerned because he didnt do any scalp exercices and felt that he may be too tight to achieve his goal of 4000 grafts. He was planning on having two surgeries of around 7000-8000 grafts in total if possible. As soon as I met him I was in shock . Take a look and tell me do you think he has to do any scalp exercises? He had never done any before this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=56kGWPobRRw He ended up with 7822 grafts this was considering that he still had alot more flexiblity. If Dr. Hasson would have taken all that he could he would have ended up with around 10,000 in my opinion. His strip was 2-2.5 CM and a length of 34, he had very dense donor.

Senior Member Sean Posted September 24, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted September 24, 2011 Whattttttttttttt, he does not need any scalp exercises. Lucky guy, he is blessed with an elastic scalp. I've never seen that. I know some rare medical conditions make the skin elastic, but not sure if that is the case here. Looks like a really good result waiting to happen. Seems like a great candidate for strip! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member lorenzo Posted September 24, 2011 Author Senior Member Share Posted September 24, 2011 I forgot to mention he wore a wig for 8 years. This could be one of the reasons why he was so elastic. Representative for Hasson & Wong.

Senior Member RCWest Posted September 24, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted September 24, 2011 Wow he must be part Shar Pei. He is the kind of patient who would do well with a scalp reduction (although I don't like that procedure). Dense donor, large donor area, and all the elasticity in the world. Finasteride 1.25 mg. daily Avodart 0.5 mg. daily Spironolactone 50 mg twice daily 5 mg. oral Minoxidil twice daily Biotin 1000 mcg daily Multi Vitamin daily Damn, with all the stuff you put in your hair are you like a negative NW1?

Senior Member hairthere Posted September 25, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted September 25, 2011 Wow, that's one loose scalp. I would be a bit concerned about scar stretching with that kind of laxity, though. Did the docs mention if there was an increased possibility of that happening?
