It is normally the requirement of many patients especially those in Norwood Scale 4-7 to achieve as much coverage as possible to their thinning areas in one session. This, can only be achieved if two basic requirements are present. The first is related to the high number of donor hair the patient can give and the second is related to the ability of the medical team to transplant correctly this high number of hair.

As far as the first requirement is concerned, in order for an individual patient to give more hair, he must have high density and high skin laxity.

With our standards, we consider a Mega Session to be between 3.000 to 3.500 grafts. A Super Mega Session is anything over 3.500 grafts and this number can even reach the region of 5.000 grafts.

For a medical team to be able to finish a hair transplant surgery of 3.500 – 5.000 grafts in less than 12 hours, they must have sufficient number of well trained doctors, nurses and technicians. HDC Hair Clinic, for Super Mega Sessions uses its whole team that consists of two doctors, three nurses and three technicians, whom you can see in our staff list. This team has three expert placers, three expert sliverers and seven expert cutters.

Below we demonstrate the cutters on the move:

After the STRIP is removed by the doctor two persons sliver and pass the slivers immediately to the rest of five cutters. By the time the doctors finish suturing and site creation, there are enough dissected grafts for the three placers to start placing, two or three at the same time. The rest of the team continues graft cutting to maintain a constant supply of grafts to the placers. This team coordination and expertise, with the ability to change roles according to the need of the surgical hair procedure, is one main factor that enables HDC Hair Clinic to offer 3500 - 5.000 graft Super Mega Sessions.

Below it is demonstrated how the placers  work all together on a singe patient at the same time so as to perform successfully a Super Mega Session.

Placement of Grafts

We also want to demonstrate below the example of two Super Mega Session patients. The first one had 3,800 grafts placed on the front and top area of the scalp and the second patient had 4,410 grafts from which 3,000 were placed on the front and top and 1,410 on the crown.

In addition to explaining our techniques we show a different result in every section, because we understand that what counts for the patient at the end of the day, is how he looks after the hair transplant. On this section, we show the result of the patient in the photo right above.
