Regular Member Ccd99 Posted April 17 Regular Member Share Posted April 17 (edited) Stellar result, very impressive @Dr. Ahmed Altan I have some questions: 0.7mm is a small punch, the donor site must be looking good with respect to scars? Is the patient on any medication? Could you share some photos at day 0 after the extraction and implantation?

We can use it only if diameter of hair shaft is allowing us. He started using Minoxidil also medicated with crushed Finasteride inside on 4th month but somehow he decided to stop after 3 months of use. i will add photo of implanted part but donor area is not nice to share here as it was not clean for this patient. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice work, very dense for 4200 grafts and such a big surface area! What was the size of recipient area and what sort of density was this implanted at?

What was the size of recipient area and what sort of density was this implanted at? Thank you for your quote Ccd99, It was in total 103 cm2 and avarage makes around 40-42 FUs/cm2 and frontal 40 cm2 has better density like 50-55 and mid-crown 63 cm2 has lower density. A small note here: You can not guess surgeons hand moves here(please check previous photo), so they are homogenized one by one. Not to cause any irregular empty parts also not to cause a ploughed view/result. Thanks for reading. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
