FOLLICULAR MULTIPLICATION is the only procedure I'm aware of in which almost all of the donor follicles will regrow...ergo, MULTIPLICATION. In my case, the doctors estimated definitely 80%+ regrowth from my last Treatment in Aug05. I have proof of the regrowth with photos. I will post them soon with an easy to calculate diagram showing the regrowth area. This way everyone (Dr's and non-technical) can easily see the proof of the Muliplication aspect of FM.

Man, I frankly lost track of how many STRIP procedures I received, but it was at least 4, you can see the scars on the back, but I also have them on the sides:-( So, you are the only one so far who has made the very important observation about the "guarantee" of growth with the STRIP hairs. The doctors at GHO Clinic also agreed that that work did not result in a very good transfer rate, which probably explains why that DR went out of business about 4 years ago. You have to remember that in STRIP:
1) Massive trauma is caused to the scalp.
2) They are effectively trying to fit a square peg (cut apart donor follicles) into a round hole (donor hole).
3) The donor holes are pretty large 3-5mm diam, some scars can still be seen because of the lack of precision in this method.
I remember how much friggin was involved with STRIP, they cauterized the wound, stitched it up, bandaged my head like a mummy and I had serious pain for a week and could only sleep sitting up due to the bleeding issues for 3 days min, very unpleasant experience.
FM is a completely different and pleasant story
))
1) So little trauma, you walk right out of the clinic with no bleeding and NO BANDAGE.
2) Recovery within 1 day to return to work.
3) A round donor follicle for a round donor hole
4) Only .75mm diam, which is 90% or more less area affected per follicle than STRIP procedure.
5) Practically NO PAIN.
6) No visible scars
7) Regrowth of almost all donor area (MULTIPLICATION)
Ok, I'm ready for more questions?
