I just had a great transplant/ reconstruction with Dr. Jean Devroye in Brussels.
Since this one was so much better (than the one I had in California) and not painful at all, I am gettng greedy and am planning on covering the back part of my head as well...
Is there a reason you had three instead of two operations. Could you have had two with more Fu's each, or is it better to spread it out.
Congratulations again on your great surgical experience. You are certainly in good hands.
Back when I did my first sugery about 5 years ago session sizes were not as big as today. So I did 3 sessions of around just under 1500 grafts (totalling nearly 4500 grafts). Now a person could do this total in about 2 sessions in many cases.
I think most of us need to think in terms of at least two sessions since even with dense packing of grafts they can still only be placed about 1mm apart in one surgery. The second session allows the surgeon to go back through the area transplanted and add more hair and thus density.
Best wishes for great hair growth. Pat
