Hair Transplants - Megasession or Conservative Approach?

[TeeJay73]

Doctor Epstein:

Thanks for taking the time to respond, so insightfully. It speaks to the awesomeness (not even sure if that's a word!) of this forum.

When I first began to notice my hair loss at about 25 years old (10 years ago), I ventured down the wrong path of lotions and potions and large, late-nite informercial hair transplant clinics. In a 1st hair transplant I had only 800grafts, under the guidance of the clinic, which produced nonsignificant results.

But luckily, before too much damage was done, and before too many dollars were spent, I found the IAHRS, educated myself, and my results have improved dramatically with a recent procedure of 1,600+ grafts (currently 9 months post-op). My hairline has softened and I've had a big, big density pick-up in my frontal regions.

The question of "how many grafts" per session came up while I was educating myself, and since I am such a curious person and an information gatherer by nature, I wanted to know the perspectives of other IAHRS surgeons.

Thanks Doctor Epstein!
