Laxity

[Follicle Death Row]

Of course donor density is important but scroll down and have a look at the width of the strip these guys took. Doesn't even look real. Get working on those scalp laxity exercises guys.

(Edit - If you're considering going the strip route, not turning this into a FUT vs. FUE, just wanted to show mutant scalp laxity)

I would be more concerned about yield with such a large session.

That photo witha table full of grafts is insane. Patients with that combination of donor density and laxity is not that common. I would like to see the donor scar and hair growth one year after the procedure.

People always ask how many grafts it would take to turn a NW6/7 into a NW1. I guess we know now that on some people it can be done with 10000 grafts. I'm super jelly of this guy. He is a legit NW6.5 that will now be a NW1.

That's if everything grows!

I followed the link to the clinics site, a Russian medical group that charges 1.50/graft US for strip and 3.00/graft FUE. Makes me feel very fortunate that I live in the states.

The examples in their portfolio don't strike me as looking like particularly good work:

Yeah I'd be worried about the yield but if it works out I'm sure we'll see it and if it doesn't I'm sure we won't.

It's very impressive that some people have such mutant laxity. This patient actually had not so great density.

If they have exceeded the elastic limit of the tissue then the scar could be horrific. Would be very interesting to see the outcome in a years time.

Dr. Hasson will do the first 10,000 case in the next couple of years I'd guess.
