I am no expert about hair transplants, so I don’t know who could be the best doctor for a full restauration using Gho’s technique.
Anyway, the idea is interesting.
Lets suppose its Bisanga, as proposed by JB.
According to Iron_Man, Gho can nowadays move 1500-2000 grafts per day using HST. I don´t know if this figure is accurate.
If true, Gho could move 15.000 grafts in 10 days.
I think this would be enough to make a good proof-of-concept trial.
The perfect trialist would be a NW6 patient with approximately 15000 grafts left in the donor area. The idea would be to harvest all of the donor grafts.
Gho would do the harvesting, and conditioning of the FU’s, while Bisanga would do the design and placement. Dr. Jones would supervise the whole thing, to check that there are no manipulations. Dr. Jones would be the referee., so to speak.
This way we ensure:
-Correct harvesting by Gho (suppossedly 95% survival in both sites)
-Correct aesthetic placement by Bisanga (Gho is quite poor on this, Bisanga could be better, I suppose).
-They can do it alternatively, so that Gho doesn’t reveal to Bisanga the details of how to extract the grafts. i.e., Gho extracts the grafts, separates the FU’s, and soak them into the growth media… and when there are enough FU’s ready, then Bisanga enters the room, and places them in the recipient site. The problem is that Gho will see the design by Bisanga, and will learn Bisanga’s tricks. I don’t know when Dr. Jones should enter the room, to avoid him leeching Gho’s and Bisanga’s tricks. All this “copyriht protection” could complicate things.
For even better credibility, several candidates-patients could be presented to Hairsite forum members, (for example, 4 candidates) and forum members would choose the one they prefer. Well, if Jones is the referee, I think this is not necessary. Just an idea.
This experiment would be a spectacular proof of concept, and a historic event if successful.
The patient’s donor and recipient areas would be checked later at 1 week, 3 months, 1 year and 3 years, to verify that the donor and recipient hairs can cycle normally.
This trial can be done right now, as Gho doesn’t need to train Bisanga on the technique.
Instead of Bisanga we could choose another doctor, if we have any problem with Bisanga.
The key point is to harvest all the donor area. If Gho’s claims are true (average survival >95% in donor and recipient) then this could be possible with little risks.
Edit 1: well, to simplify the experiment: Dr. Jones doesn’t need to be present during the transplant (10 days). He would simply evaluate the trialist BEFORE, and AFTER (at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 1 year, 3 years).
BEFORE:Take BEFORE photos, and count available hairs in the donor area. Place a few tatoo points to delimit donor and receptor areas.
AFTER: Evaluate donor and recipient areas, at 1 week, 1 month, 3 months, 1 year, and 3 years. Jones would shave the trialist, and take “AFTER” photos, and count hairs in both areas.
This way we don’t have to worry about Jones potentially accessing Gho’s and Bisanga’s “secrets”, and we save 10 days to Dr. Jones.
Perhaps he is even on this board!? REVEAL YOURSELF CHRISTOS!
