gc83uk's september '13 procedure.

[Arashi]

Yeah, Rolph's extraction rate was much better for me too.

Same here. Rolf for sure is the best technician they have.

Did you see how many 2s and 3s there were?

No I didn't. As far as I'm aware they mix them up in both compartments. Did you take a look at the petridish pic? Not good focus but can make out a few of the grafts.

Interesting. I'm sure Rolf will wonder why everyone is asking for him considering the amount of members and non members of this site. Lol

I thought they separated them? Or is that just for the 50 graft test?

I'll have a look at the petri dish photo?

So you think this will be your last 2-day procedure or your second last, that's really encouraging.

What sort of density do you think you'll have by then?

No I will defo go back for a 2 day procedure in may.

I don't really know what I can expect in terms of density. But if we assume there is approx 100cm2 to begin with say 6300 grafts then that's obv 63 grafts per cm2. 1.5 hairs per graft, so lets say 90 hairs per cm2.

Gaz, I think one area isn't very clear and that's the area a few inches left from your right ear. Can you shoot some more pics from that ? From the whole area please, so from top to bottom.

[Arashi]

If you look at photo _173804, I'd like to see the camera just a little more to the left (so toward the back of your head). And then some photo's from top to bottom. I think if we have that, then we have everything.

[Arashi]

And btw, we really need a lot more from your recipient too. Donor is pretty complete (apart from that one area that could use some more photo's) but recipient we need a lot more. Would love to be able to count how many grafts they placed into your recipient (and see if it really were 1300).

Take a look at the next 8 pics.

And how comfortable are you to shave the donor area they're going to use tomorrow (the 'left' part of your scalp) a bit down ? I'd love to have some more/better pics there, since it's seems this is going to be the area we're going to focus our research on. And currently the hairs in that area are a bit longer than the rest of your scalp.

Perfect ! I think donor is complete now. Hopefully you can shoot some more of recipient.

[Arashi]

You know what, I'll just start counting your donor extractions right away. This will also be helpful to determine if we really have all the photo's we need.

Ok good because I'm putting the fucidin cream on the donor now

I'll shave down the left area after the footy and also take a load of the recipient too.

Good luck counting mate. Even if you can't get an exact figure within 100 either side would be very valuable.

How's the counting going?

[Arashi]

How's the counting going?

I think I'm at about 40-50% now. It's a lot of work to link all the pictures together. But it's doable. Not sure if I can get it done today, but I'm going to try to get as far as possible, because in a few days ... all your extraction points are gone and we can't shoot any more photo's. So working as hard as possible here
