This patient had an excllent head of hair EXCEPT for the right side of the hairline where it intersects with the temple hair. FUE was tailor made for this kind of hairloss.

We extracted 200 FUEs and refined them under the microscope to make sure they were only one hair grafts then packed them into the bald area.

Here are his results at 1 year:

This is the perfect scenario for a fue HT.  No need to slice and dice for a small area like this.  Great result.  Blends perfectly.  Thanks for the post.

Yup perfect case for fue.

Spex when you say...

We extracted 200 FUEs and refined them under the microscope to make sure they were only one hair grafts then packed them into the bald area.


Does this mean that any grafts larger than one follicular unit were simply split  down into singles.If so was the total number of grafts extracted less than 200,then split to make 200 or did the patient receive more than 200 when they were split.

Hope that makes sense.

The end result looks very good and natural.Blends into his hairline very well.

Thanks bm.

The post was made By Dr Feller, i just copied it.

I do not know the exact graft/hair count or anything about the patients case. Feller mentions he extracted 200 grafts, so judging by what he wrote within that there would have been some optimal 2's undoubtedly that were disected down therefore more than 200 1's in total. That's the way i understand it anyway.

Thanks Spex.

Reading it again its most probably about 170 grafts extracted and when cut down to singles they make up the 200 which is good for the patient as its less grafts extracted from his donor area.

I think it was a joke about Dr.Fellers statements in comparison to this result. A really good one, perhaps with no transection ...

Thanks NW5.:::C

You reckon , from a complete random newbie... maybe... I don't think thats the case at all. The disingenuous comment has not been backed up or removed whether it was a joke or not.

Spex.

This member`s posting rights have been revoked which is probably why he hasn`t replied to you.No one noticed his comments except you and you are the one baiting him back on.

He may well return as he is using a Proxy server to post,i cant ban this IP though as its the same one youself and a few other members use to post.

Baiting him?
 
Is it not reasonable to ask him to clarify his comment based on the content? NN too remarked on the comment "Harry" made asking him if he had missed something...The comment has been there a month now so i would have thought others like NN will have seen it and thought it strange, maybe it was just the 2 of us who saw it. However,  If "Harry's" privilege to post was removed after his comment was made then it would make sense he has not been back on to comment in response to NN and myself. I was not aware "Harry" had been banned for his comment -all i asked for was clarification on the comment.
 
Out of interest - is there a reason that the poster was banned but his comment remains?

If you had a problem with the comment you could have private messaged me with your concerns.Poster was not banned just blocked from posting as a ban is useless with the internet provider he used to post.Maybe he will re join as another user like others have.

I did not have a problem - As mentioned i only asked for clarification originally publically as did NN from the poster after his comment was made; as it would have been appreciated. But as it turned out you removed his posting privileges. I was unaware of that as i didn't received any notice from you at the time via email or PM - I assumed he had an agenda as had not returned to give us clarification.
 
I will not waste anymore of your time so not need to reply as trivial but thanks for the explanation.:::C
 
Regards
Spex

HT,
Thankfully 25% loss is not the norm for FUE. But the potential for it to be is very high when compared to strip.

I may not be able to tell when I harveset FUEs if they WILL grow, but I have a pretty good idea when they WON'T grow-and that's just as important.

If I perform 100 FUE attempts and I don't get AT LEAST 70% success, meaning INTACT follicles without too much traction required, then the FUE case must be aborted.

Simple answer really, you have a doctor who says and promotes himself as an expert of a technique, registers numbers of patents of a tool that have never been proven to be any better than those available, just different. Dr. Feller says, as above, his words, if he removed/transected/killed up to 30% of grafts he considers this to be acceptable as a result, before he deems to stop surgery.

Excerpt from article written by Ron Shapiro, MD


 

However the story does not end there. A handful of hair replacement physicians still believed that FUE could be a powerful tool if the problems could be worked out. They improved the instrumentation and technique dramatically over the last 5 years. Among the advancements were the use of smaller punches that decreased the incidence of the “spotty scarring”; limited depth scoring that reduced transaction, motorized punches that made it easier to score the skin; a better understanding of the amount of extractions that can occur per area before scarring occurs; blunt dissection techniques, and many others. The result of these improvements have made it possible to perform FUE much more consistently with minimal damage to the grafts, more grafts per procedure, and less of the spotty scarring occurring in the donor area. Some of the physicians who were responsible for the improvements in this field include (in no particular order) Jim Harris, John Cole, Bill Rassman, Bob Bernstein, and Alan Feller.

Dr. Feller,

To be honest,I'm missing the point to your reply to Harry and his concern about your comfort level in FUE transection rate.I don't see how Dr. Shapiro's reference to you in his article applies to this thread. 

Harry,I'm not sure why you brought your concerns here instead of following up on the original forum where you copied Dr. Feller's post from.But I hope you get your questions answered.

 bm.

The transparent maliciousness of this supposed "first time" poster aside,

I think it's very obvious that the poster was trying to impugn my credibility as an FUE surgeon and innovator, so printing a relevent excerpt from another well respected physican was the most appropriate and succinct reply.

With respect to the quote of mine he purposefully took out of context, the sad fact is that many FUE doctors brute-force their way through FUE cases on patients whose skin demontrate even greater than 30% failure rates. That's why there was such a huge spate of poor FUE results from 2003 to 2007-and still continue to this day. 

FUE patient's whose skin demonstrate a 70% or greater success rate have a high chance of cosmetically significant results and so continuing a procedure under those circumstances is right and justified. Below the 70% mark I believe the surgery must be cancelled.
