Is 2013 year of HST?

[Gandolf]

Maybe they are forced to do this – contrary to Dr. Gho?

Maybe. Or maybe Gho doesn't have any mindblowing results at this time and is "forced" to just use what he's got on the website.

[Gandolf]

Seeing how Gho is booked for quite a while, there really isnt that great of an urge to further the long wait for new patients. Any further marketing and he'd be jeopardizing his clinics by overloading them for years, not months. You don't want to tell potential patients the waiting list is years long. Its a one man operation, basically, I dont know of any partners/investors Gho has, so I would imagine its not exactly easy to open up more clinics and overlook all of them WHILE performing the procedures as well. That's a lot of work he has on his plate.

This is not accurate, Gho has multiple clinics and multiple other doctors already performing the procedure.

He has a few clinics but they all already have months of waiting lists. The problem with expansion for Gho is training of the technicians and doctors. It takes a lot of time for a technician to become really skilled at the extraction process (the smaller the needle, the more difficult it becomes of course).

how do you explain the fact that hasci finds it easier to extract multiple hair grafts than extracting single hair grafts?

its hard to understand how is that possible but thats what they claim

Right, they KNOW that it is easier to make 4 follicles from 2 follicles (2-hair grafts) and it is even much more easier for them to make 6 follicles from 3 follicles (3-hair grafts).

The problem is rather that someone can try to explain this individuals a hundred thousand times - they still ask the same question over and over again.

The answer to this question is now more than 7 years old (question 4) ...

http://www.baldnessbattlers.com/JBInterviewGho.htm

... and you can find the same answer in Dr. Gho's published HST papers, in both Kobren/Gho interviews straight from Dr. Gho's mouth, and finally, for all those who still don't know, in IronMan's HST banana demo thread in another forum.

So, didi - now explain in this thread how it works, why it works, and finally, why it's easier to extract multiple hair grafts with such small (special) needles.

'Because the needle is much smaller than the follicle unit, it is almost impossible to extract to much tissue'


Looking at the HST graft pic

its impossible to extract too much tissue BUT it is possible to extract too little of tissue that will cause 2 hair graft to grow as 1 hair graft in recepient.

[534623]

'Because the needle is much smaller than the follicle unit, it is almost impossible to extract to much tissue'

What you quote, explains just the reason in general why you can make 2 hairs from 1.

But it doesn't explain THE reason

1) what exactly makes it possible at all (easily extracting lesser follicle tissue than necessary);

2) why it's easier for them to extract multiple grafts (2-hair and especially 3-hair grafts) rather than single hair grafts?

Quote the proper sentence!

'Follicular Units consists of 2 to 4 hairs. Since one hair follicle has a diameter of at least 0.5 mm . the diameter of a follicular unit is at least 0.8 to 0.9mm. Hairs consists of dead material and have a harder consistency than the hair follicle itself.

Because we use special needles between 0.5 and 0.6mm., depending on the size of the hair follicles, we are able to use the “dead hard hairs” (black arrows as a guidance to obtain the hair stem cells (blue arrows) present in the hair follicles between the “dead hard hairs”.


i see, so double hair grafts would be the easiest ones to extract, 3s can be challanging if they grow in odd configuration

This still doesn't HIGHLIGHT the reason. It contains THE reason for 1) and 2) from my previous post, but still doesn't HIGHLIGHT the reason.

If I would do all this for you - I'm 100% sure - you ask the same bullshit tomorrow (if not already today) again. Same issue as with your 3-hair paranoia - you ask the same shit over and over again.

By the way ...

... what part exactly of your own answer, you still don't understand yourself??

[didi]

My 3 hair paranoia?...well, not really, aparently hasci made a mistake on their website and now instead of 2.5 grafts they say average hairs per graft is 2.0...hmm..drop of .5 hairs per graft....

sometimes you got to ask right questions, im unbiased n always ask lot of HARD questions , sometimes i ask the same questions over n over but it pays off at the end...

"Maksimal sekitar 3000 graft dapatditransplantasi per hari per perawatan."

That roughly translates to 'A maximum of 3000 grafts can be transplanted per day'.

Am I mistaken or is this an increase from what they previously allowed in terms of grafts per day??

[gc83uk]

No your not mistaken, the previous maximum was approx 2520 (which is still mentioned on the main hasci.com website.)

[534623]

Cooool. That means they will make soon 6000-9000 holes in gc83uk's donor area - to get the 3000 grafts for his recipient area.

[didi]

its just marketing hype

i wouldnt go by what they say on their website

almost everyone gets around 1500,

i have 4-5000 grafts avail and they still offer me only 1400, even though i was willing to have 2 day procedure to double the number of grafts


id be surprised if someone gets 2000 with indonesian team as they are least experienced; amsterdam team have hard time extracting that many grafts
