Creating the new hairline > Bosley Medical Seattle > Dr. Winans

In our previous segment Seth received local anesthesia as well as medication to help him relax as he prepares for his hair restoration.  In the following segment of our multi-part video series, Dr. Winans prepares the recipient sites where Seth’s grafts will eventually be placed.  

The recipient sites are done by hand at varying depth and angle with random placement.  The artistry used in creating the recipient sites is required to make a completely natural looking hairline.

While Dr. Winans is creating the recipient sites (tiny incisions) the surgical team is separating the follicular units, which will be placed in the recipient sites.  The surgical team is trained and retrained extensively on the handling of grafts to ensure their healthy growth.

Follicular units contain groupings of 1-4 hairs.  These groupings will be placed with smaller finer groupings in the front and thicker, larger groupings toward the back just like nature had intended.
