I just found this article that interviewed Dr. True who I know is an IAHRS doctor and another doctor who I never heard of. I’m confused about the statement that coronal incisions which I believe are the lateral slits can cause more shock loss. Is this true and if so why is the lateral slit promoted as the best technique?
"It is generally thought that when working in between existing hairs, coronal incisions carry a greater risk of causing follicular damage. In this situation, sagittal incisions may be preferred," Dr. True says.
This statement also confused me. Did he mean it’s common for doctors not on the IAHRS or common in hair transplant surgery in general. If the latter is true then what percentage of people does this happen to?
“Poor growth is a relatively common occurrence after follicular unit transplant surgery. Prevention is the best management for this complication, and that requires understanding of the multiple possible causes,” Dr. True says.
This is the article from Cosmetic Surgery Times. Can any experts please advise?
