1. Inadequate training and hand eye co-ordination – FUE hair transplant requires lot of hand eye co-ordination for perfection. For best results surgeons eye should see the graft and it’s angle from scalp and surgeons hands are exactly align the micropunch in direction of hair so graft should not transected. Only microsurgeon can do this in perfect way after lot of experience.
2. Inadequate magnification- With higher magnification under microscope the tiny structures (hairs) are seen much clearer. Because lack of training in microsurgery most of doctors are not able to do hand eye co-ordination at higher magnification. So they use no magnification or low magnification loops, that’s by high transaction rate.
3. Using very sharp punches- if surgeon use sharp punches these punch should cut dermis deep only. If sharp punches goes deeper to dermis the graft is easily transected (cut).so graft harvesting with sharp punches require very precision and experience.
4. Using high speed micromotor- standard FUE machine/ S.A.F.E.R ROBOTIC machine have low speed rotation with perfect alignment of hand piece and punch. Most of technicians/centers use dental micromotor. High speed and improper alignment of hand piece lead to high transaction rate.
5. Inadequate light- in most of centers traditional halogen lights are used, which gives only 20000 lumens illumination. For such small miniature thing like hairs adequate LED light more than 100000 lumens are required. This costly LED light is available in few centers only.
At “KOSMETIC CLINIQUE” hair transplant is performed by Dr AJAY SINGHAL plastic surgeon who have lot of experience in microsurgery and hair transplant. He do hair transplant with standard FUE machine/S.A.F.E.R MACHINE under microscope and high performance LED light in sterile and well equipped operation theatre. He is well-known for high density and specially natural looking hairline.
Normally One follicular graft have 1-4 hairs, so an average 1000 grafts= 2500 hairs.
Under substandard graft harvesting conditions in most of 3-4 hairs graft only 1 hair remains intact others are transected. Thus on an average out of 1000 graft only 1200-1500 hairs are harvest intact. With standard condition and experience most of graft contains 3-4 hairs intact are harvest. On an average 1000 graft have 2300 -2400 hairs.
