Dr. Keene utilizes double follicular unit (DFU) for Hair Transplants in Scottsdale Arizona grafts in some locations to add to the density. This means less grafts yeild additional hairs per sq cm. DFUís are 3-4 hairs that are made up of 2 follicular units, i.e. a small gap in between the hairs. But they look natural on their own, and are still small, fewer than 1 mm apart. Dr. Keene makes use of blades as of .7 mm to 1.5 mm to make the recipient sites. 10 years ago the least blade size utilize in hair transplants to create the recipient sites for one haired grafts was 1.5 mm, so that demonstrates you the advances that have been are produced in techniques designed to reduce trama, which Dr. Keene utilizes. If you seem at a metric ruler you will see merely how very small so as to is. DFUís have a slight gap between groupings, but can be placed simply as closely together, or closer together, when not cut down into smaller follicular unit grafts. The advantage is that more density can be created with smaller number incisions, which means a less costly hair transplant to the patient. It also results in fewer trauma due to smaller quantity incisions being needed to place the similar numbers of hairs. Dr. Keene focused solely on FU grafts for a little time, but having placed DFU grafts prior, she soon realized so as to DFU grafts seem just as natural in locations like the crown, while providing extra density at fewer cost.

Each tick above is 1mm. The DFU fits into a 1.5 mm flat incision. The FUs fit into two .7 mm flat incisions, with a space in betweenñthe total of which is larger than 1.5 mm in distance. So more hairs can be placed into a smaller area utilizing double follicular units than solely single follicular units. Remember these photos are magnified to a larger size than actual, so if you want to see what 1 mm or 1.5 mm really looks like, appear at an actual metric rulerñyou will see so as to both are extremely tiny. Dr. Keene does not exceed 1.5 mm in measurement for the incisions she makes, and she customizes the blades and incisions to as very little as .7mm, depending on the individual graft sizes. In the frontal hairline basically one haired grafts are placed, but behind that there is a gradual transition to the make use of of 1 to 4 hairs per grafts mixed-if the hairs are inside 1mm of each other, we consider it a follicular unit, but if they exceed so as to and are still inside about 1.25 mm of each other we call it a double follicular unit. Using grafts of 1-4 hairs results in a entirely natural appearance. In Dr. Keeneís opinion, there is regularly a cosmetic advantage to using mainly added 3 to 4 haired grafts in the regions behind the frontal hairline, so she asks her assistants to focus on dissecting as a lot of 3-4 haired grafts as possible. These are not mini grafts. We have been told by patients who have met with Dr. Keene so as to some other doctors have claimed she does mini grafts. That is not the case. Mini grafts were often 6 hairs and sometimes additional, and would never have fit into the minute incisions Dr. Keene used in today. Dr Keene stopped using mini grafts in the late 90ís. She focused on follicular units purely for a little years, but than realized that the inclusion of a number of double follicular units was advantageous due to her experience. The key is in knowing where the different types of grafts be supposed to be placed, and which patients will benefit from which size fu grafts. Patients with scar tissue from previous surgeries, or low density, may not group close enough together to allow DFUís that are very little enough. The patient must also have distendable skin to take sufficient donor. Merely single follicular unit grafts are used the hairline. Experience as well as aesthetic ability in hair transplant surgery, along with technical expertise, allows Dr. Keene to determine where DFUís are appropriate. Dr. Keene also offer Follicular Unit Extraction. For this, she utilizes a 1 mm or smaller punch to remove follicular units one at a time. You can find no sutures, fewer healing time, as well as it is minimally invasive. While this procedure can be helpful for very little areas of hair loss, Dr. Keene recommends the strip process when a larger area of coverage is needed. We are also not capable to acquire a lot of 3-4 haired grafts with the FUE process, so it is a trade off. But for patients who have limited laxity which prevents additional donor removed with a strip process, and those who require fewer coverage, their can be advantages to the FUE method. Neither is scarless, but if you heal well, it is more likely that you can wear your hair very short with FUE. Looking closely at the photos above, you can see so as to leaving a space between does not put the hairs closer together. Each tick above is 1mm. The DFU fits into a 1.5 mm flat incision. The FUs fit into two .7 mm flat incisions, with a space in betweenñthe total of which is larger than 1.5 mm in distance.
