Why Numbers aren’t everything in Hair Transplant Surgery
Category: FUT (Follicular Unit Transplant) , Hair Density , Post Operative Concerns , Session SizesBalding men and women quickly become mesmerized by extremely large hair transplant megasessions sometimes referred to as “ultra” megasessions. Given that the number of surgical procedures is fewer in patients who are candidates for such large sessions, there’s no doubt as to why it’s often the procedure of choice for patients.
And though these large numbers of hairs moved often impress patients, many variables can prevent every patient from becoming a candidate for such a hair restoration procedure. See “When Ultra Hair Transplant Megasessions are and aren’t Appropriate”.
Additionally, it takes more than massive quantities of hair to create a cosmetically pleasing and natural looking hair transplant result. Recently, hair loss forum member “TC17” started a list of important attributes that make a hair transplant successful. Can you add to this list? View this discussion topic to see what others think make surgical hair replacement successful and share your own.
