Nice work doctor b. have you got any pictures of the scare on the 24 month mark.

[sl]

He had a second Strip with us and here is the immediate post op of that so seemingly it healed well and we obtained circa 3,000 grafts for this.

 

I don't know if we have one prior to taking the Strip but will ask and in any event the patient hopefully can share the Strip once heals after his recent second procedure.

Excellent result from a great Doctor. Thanks for sharing.

 

Was he also an FUE candidate?

Hi Delancey

 

Patient had very high density and could have had FUE but if wearing hair long and often price can be a factor then Strip was the way forward for him and having had two now he has ample donor to tap into via FUE should this be needed and as can be seen the donor looks very good and plenty to tap into if needed.

 

This patient hopefully can update once he gets the growth from this second surgery and really has all things covered for any future loss with the way he addressed his loss and technique used and starting density he had.

[delancey]

That makes a lot of sense.

 

I noticed that both strips yielded approximately the same amount of grafts. Was there a strategy behind doing two sessions of approximately 3000 grafts per surgery rather than taking one strip and maximizing the amount of grafts in one session?

 

Once again, great result. I'm a big fan.

Nice look forward to seeing the second procedure hopefully along with the scare pics to . Ipl keep an eye out for the update.

The patient is not one I personally dealt with due to nationality but medically we could have harvested more than 3k in the first surgery, probably would not have gone for 6k as such in one go but more than 3,000 could have been obtained for sure.

 

Often the patient will have also financial restraints as I did in my own surgeries so there is a plan for multiple sittings and was the case here for a second sitting to be done and subject to healing, laxity etc then dictates how much is possible on the day even if there is a good idea prior. So, a plan was there and he will need a third and that could be via FUE to touch anything not addressed in these sittings.

Thanks Wwiizzkkiidd24. Yes I will ask for them when possible.
