Does anyone have any opinions about her multi-graft dispenser?

Has anyone seen any results of her HT with or without this tool? Pictures or in RL

Any other opinions about her or her work?

Any info would be appreciated.

Thanks!

"Isabel Banuchi’s clever multigraftdispenser facilitates the counting process, keeps grafts moist, places grafts in the right place for implantation and reduces implantation time"

If it works at an acceptable rate, say 98%, I'd say it's good. I originally thought it cut the grafts, but it looks like it just counts them.


300 'mini' grapfts by Latham's Hair Clinic - 1991 (Removed 50 plugs by Cooley 3/08.)
2750 FU 3/20/08 by Dr. Cooley

I've used the graft dispenser. It has no impact on the results of the HT and is simply a tool used by the technician to hold the grafts while placing keeps them moist and help keep a count of the grafts. I found it to be ineffective, but that's mainly because when you are experienced, it's hard to change your technique and you tend to be resistant to changing the way you do your job. I think it certainly has merit for the newbie in the field because it might help them in learning how to handle the graft and facilitate the insertion of the graft into the site.

instinct,

As long as the tool is highly effective in its purpose (keeping the grafts moist and helping keep count), it shouldn't have any impact on the hair transplant result.

Abbie,

You used the graft dispenser? Are you a hair translant technician?

Best wishes,

Falc
