Great result. Were the photos of the operation taken the day of, or shortly after? I ask because there is almost no redness or trauma detectable. Also, the placement of the grafts seems indistinguishable from that of other doctors, yet the resulting hairline seems much more natural than most others. What’s the secret? Thanks.[/quote]
Hi CueBallBob
Thank you for your appreciation and for your query.
Yes, the pictures were taken shortly, approximately 3 weeks after the operation.
For what concerns Dr Koray’s secret, you should come to the Clinic to discover it in person!
Dr Koray uses exclusively the “Manual Punch” Technique during the extraction of grafts (not micromotor), effectuating then the incisions with the most refined “Lateral Slit” Technique: during this procedure, the incision is performed using the blade with a 90-degree angle over the coronal level, that is an imaginary line which “connects” patient’s lateral sides of the head. Operating this way, incisions look like small pockets in which follicular units will be inserted during the next phase of the surgery. Trauma is minimum and patient’s skin perfectly covers the follicular unit. It is also possible to set easily the correct exit direction of the hair.
