    Default VIDEO Dr. Lindsey Repair case/cleaning issues McLean VA

    Its easy to post repair cases when someone else did the initial case...but how many hair doctors post repair cases when it is a repair of their own work? This may be a world premier.



    In any case....I BELIEVE that my initial case had such poor results do to inadequate cleaning in the first week. I've posted several videos on this topic and have shown a couple of cases where you can see precisely where crusting, from inadequate cleaning, auto-extracted grafts leaving hairless areas. Despite lots of instructions/videos/offers of multiple in office cleanings..we still have patients not clean.



    AND I'm working on a video where a guy pulled out several hundred grafts the night of surgery!!!



    Take a look at this guy, we did him several years ago, he didn't clean at all...lived several hours away and came in at a week looking crusty. He got poor growth along the hairline. 6 years later, we repeated the surgery but required him to come for daily cleaning.



    And he walked in last week looking excellent.



    I'm convinced that success in hair is related to: the doctor, the staff(excellent cutters and quick placers), patient physiology, genetics (for scarring), and cleaning. I know I beat cleaning instructions into people like I'm beating a dead horse..but I want success as much as, or almost as much as, the patient.
