Can a doctor actually see that he transected the hair?? And then does he then throw that graft out or does he implant the graft anyways?? Yes, there are different types. There are transected hairs, partially transected hairs, and what surgeons call “naked follicles.” That’s when the hair matrix isn’t cut. Partially transected and naked follicles grow back in the donor. 1 I’m a paid admin for Hair Transplant Network. I do not receive any compensation from any clinic. My comments are not medical advice.

Senior Member Doron Harati Posted December 11, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted December 11, 2020 Yes my grafts were transected horribly by Arenamed clinic in Turkey, where I had my first failure hair transplant. It also happens when cheap clinics use Choi pens for DHI procedure. Doron Harati - Patient coordinator for HDC Hair Clinic, HT procedures are done by MD Doctors with Microscope FUE.

Senior Member gillenator Posted December 11, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted December 11, 2020 You would be surprised and shocked at how many times transected grafts are implanted into the recipient area...obviously this would be the exception but it does happen. It would be eye-opening to know the transection rate of every FUE procedure? Gillenator Independent Patient Advocate I am not a physician and not employed by any doctor/clinic.

No surgeon could get zero % consistently I would think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
