Megasessions of Hair Transplant Megasessions in hair transplant surgery means any hair transplantation surgery where the normal limit of number of graft transplanted in one sitting is surpassed. On an average in a single sitting of hair transplant surgery 2500 to 3500 hair follicles are transplanted. When around 5000 to 6000 hair follicles are transplanted in one sitting then such sessions of hair transplant is called megasessions. Among all the techniques for hair transplantation only the strip surgery (FUT) alone or in combination with other techniques is capable of delivering such high number of grafts in limited time. Patients get more dramatic results and the downtime for complete restoration procedure is reduced by many months. Financially also these megasessions are more viable for the patients. The secret of these megasessions is to employ a bigger team of hair transplant surgeons. The team is divided into groups and each group has responsibilities shared and more work can be done in less time making this surgery possible. These megasessions have superseded the more advanced techniques of hair transplant like FUE/Robotic hair transplant. Megasessions are providing patients with previously unimagined results in a single surgery. visit for more detail about this :. https://www.hairsciencecentre.com/hair-transplant/#mega

Preparing The Recipient Area
Various techniques are used to create and prepare the recipient area for transplantation of hair follicles. The critical element with donor area
preparation is the angle and direction at which the hair follicles will leave the scalp leading to least damage to existing hairs and the creation of
natural appearance of transplanted hair.
The most widely accepted density of hair follicle insertion at the recipient site is 30 hair follicular units per square centimeter. Some of the
practitioners advocate for a denser packing of more than 40 follicular units per square centimeter. This can however compromise the viability
of the grafts as the competition between the transplanted hair follicles for a limited blood supply increases.
Various techniques are used for recipient site creation and graft insertion. Blades may be cut to match the size of the follicular units to be
inserted. Some use hypodermic needles to make incisions for hair follicle placement. Recipient site size increases as the surgeon moves
posterior away from the hairline and the priority shifts from single, ne hairs to multiple, coarser hair follicular units.
A “stick-and-place” technique can be used to eliminate the time between which the recipient site is prepared and the hair follicle graft is placed
within it.
A “spread-and-place” technique reduces the mechanical trauma from hair follicle graft handling as the hair follicle is placed into a smaller
recipient site.
Graft Insertion
For insertion of hair follicle Jeweler’s forceps or similar non-toothed forceps are used
to gently place the grafts into the recipient sites. Transplanted hair follicle viability is
maximized by minimizing the mechanical trauma to the follicle during its insertion.
This is accomplished by handling the dead portion of the hair (the part of hair which
lies outside the scalp) rather than the sub-epidermal portion of the hair follicle itself.
Some hair implantation devices allow for near-simultaneous recipient site creation
and hair follicle insertion.

Direct Hair Transplant
Direct Hair Transplant procedure is the latest breakthrough in the hair restoration eld. It is most innovative and advanced technique of hair
transplantation. Direct hair transplant is comparatively fast and completely painless.
In the DHT technique each hair follicle is extracted one-by-one from the donor area and then these hair follicles are implanted directly to the
recipient area. There is no need of slit or hole formation over the donor area before the hair follicle transplantation. There occurs no delay in
the grafting and implanting of the grafts leading to increased survival of the grafts. The survival of extracted hair follicles depends on various
factors and some of the important factors are: Graft Hydration, Cold Temperature, Prevention of infection and Mechanical trauma during
handling of the graft.
In direct hair transplantation there is no handling of the hair roots and hence no damage to the hair follicle during the whole procedure
starting from the harvesting of the graft to the implantation of the hair follicle. As graft is not exposed to the environment hence there are no
chances of infection or graft desiccation.
Advantages:
No linear scar over the scalp
Grafts can also be harvested from areas other than the scalp, hence specially suitable for patients having very sparse hair
over scalp.
Grafts are directly transplanted over the bald area of scalp without exposing them to the external environment leading to
better graft survival.
No desiccation and mutilation of hair follicles due to separation of the hair follicles from the graft in other techniques.
Less discomfort for the patient as all the procedures can be done in the sitting position.
Less invasive, minimal risk of infection and complications.
Minimal post-operative medications and care required.
Faster healing as it uses smaller diameter punches.
It is one of the nest techniques of hair transplantation with maximum graft survival rates.
Body Hair Transplant
One of the most important principles in plastic surgery is “REPLACE LIKE WITH LIKE”. Hairs from the scalp are the best replacement for the bald
areas of scalp but unfortunately some patients do not have enough hair over the head to achieve fruitful result. In such cases, it is possible to
transplant body hairs which are similar to head hairs in structure and quality. Hairs may be taken from the beard area, armpits, chest,
abdomen, back, arms and the legs. Few thousand grafts can be taken from all these areas combined varying from patient to patient. Patients
having insu cient body hair cannot undergo this process.
