Ive been told that large sessions (in excess of 2000 grafts) produce poor growth or inadequate results. Is this true?
Definitely not! In the early years of the megasession some surgeons experienced poor results from procedures with between 1000-2000 grafts. But this was most likely due to the infancy of the procedure and a poor technique. The recognised world experts in this field are now aware that procedures with 2000-4000 grafts can consistently produce excellent growth and the most undetectable results available. Unfortunately some doctors continue to “undermine” the megasession because of the increased costs in time and money required to implement such practices. The intensive training, extra staff, long learning curve and specialized equipment is a formidable barrier to many surgeons, as is the requirement to work a 10+ hour day that a 3500-4500 graft session requires. Particularly those that perform hair transplantation in addition to other cosmetic procedures such intensive restructuring and considerable expense is just not viable. To get the best results from these procedures a number of high
