Το θέμα πυκνότητα μεταμοσχευμένων τριχών μας έχει απασχολήσει πολύ κατά καιρούς. Καθώς λοιπόν κοιτούσα στα αγγλόφωνα φόρουμ βρήκα αυτό το πολύ ενδιαφέρον άρθρο του Dr Walter Unger στο οποίο υποστηρίζονται πολλά από τα οποία έχουν λεχθεί κατά καιρούς και στο δικό μας φόρουμ για το πόσο προσεχτικοί πρέπει να είμαστε στο θέμα της πύκνωσης κατά τη μεταμόσχευση. Αν έχετε χρόνο διαβάστε το (έχει και φωτογραφίες και ενδιαφέροντες πίνακες). Εδώ ολόκληρο το άρθρο: http://www.hairlossexperiences.com/view_topic.php?id=4184&forum_id=2
Για όσους δεν έχουν χρόνο να το διαβάσουν παραθέτω ένα σημαντικό απόσπασμα:
…This means, for example, that while spectacularly dense and youthfully low hairlines can be created by using “dense packing” of 40, 50, 60 or more “follicular units” (FU)/cm2, such choices are extraordinarily unwise for nearly all young men who, on careful examination, seem likely to develop or who have family histories that include individuals who eventually developed the more severe forms of MPB…
...The patient shown in Figure 3 was one of those who had such a family history. He had originally wanted transplanting up to the most forward of the two frontal hairlines I had outlined in the “before” photos. He had seen websites in which that sort of objective was presented as being a reasonable one for young men fighting their receding hairline. The higher hairline was the one I advised him to accept. The area between the more frontal drawn hairline and the higher one that I had recommended would have required “dense packing” of approximately 4000 FU according to the owners of a few websites that this patient consulted. After examining him, there was little doubt in my mind that he would eventually (and probably soon) evolve to a Type VI or worse MPB. As noted in Table 1, which will be discussed immediately below,(1) it is likely that this man will ultimately, on average, only have approximately 5393 FU containing likely permanent hair available over his lifetime. If he had gone to one of the doctors whose sites offered him the “dense packing” and lower hairline, he would have ended up with a very dense and low frontal hairline zone which he would have been very happy with for the time being. But eventually he would have had an extraordinarily large area of baldness behind that, and a grossly unnatural appearance. Unfortunately, a few doctors with very active Internet sites suggest the lower hairline or one similar to it, as well as very high hair density goals because this is what the patient wants rather than what he should want…
