This part of the process is where the surgeon's artistic experience manifests itself in all its splendor. Since the expert must create the best design that adapts -perfectly and naturally- to the facies (face shape) of each patient and his or her type of baldness.
‍
This design is made by outlining on the patient's scalp the areas where the hair will be transplanted. This achieves the recovery of an aesthetic hair frame, which expresses a facial balance in the present time and the years to come.
‍
One of the bases of our expert in hair transplantation is based on the adaptation of the design to the shape of the face (diamond, rectangular, oval, circular, triangular and square) and the type of baldness of each of our patients.

Much of the surgeon's artistic expression in hair transplantation is translated into the realization of small micro-holes on the scalp, with the help of the most modern instruments specially designed to leave NO scar or enlarged pore. Each incision is very fine and the thickness is slightly larger than a hair, thus favoring a much better density than other techniques.

Characteristics of our technique

•  100% manual procedure
‍
•  Specific variation and separation of each incision, depending on the region and size of the graft to be placed.
‍
•  Special surgical instrumentation designed to make incisions according to the type of hair graft (either 1, 2, 3, 4 or even 5 hairs) thus achieving maximum density.

•  Angle, direction and depth are designed so that the new hair that was grafted, grows with the orientation where it was planned, achieving a discreet and natural look. This applies to the frontal, temporal and coronal area, as well as the rest of the places where new hair will be implanted.

Detailed and handcrafted process where the hair graft transplant is completed. The density of the hair transplant is fundamental when evaluating results. Nowadays it is the biggest concern that patients have.
‍
What needs to be understood is the difference between normal density and the density required to achieve an aesthetically pleasing result. Hair density is measured in number of follicular units per cm2. This number varies greatly in different ethnic groups. The average density of mestizos is between 60 and 90 follicular units per cm2, while the density of Caucasians is between 90 and 120 follicular units per cm2.
‍
The key to obtain a high density is the implantation of grafts -dense packing GHRI- where each graft is transplanted manually and one by one on each micro incision, with specially designed instruments so as not to damage the vital structure of each hair graft. This respecting the angle and location of each incision where each follicular unit will be implanted.
‍
The instrumentation required for this work is available for sale only in the USA, Canada and the European Union and is used by the best hair surgery clinics around the world. This delicate process requires an expert medical and technical team, trained and highly competitive to achieve the process in a coordinated cold network in time and movement. This is achieved by meticulously implanting up to more than 7000 hairs per session.
To achieve a high density - Dense Packing - in GHRI we make a mixture of four types of grafts, according to the personal plan of each patient.

The lateral processes (temples) are unfortunately one of the most affected causes in most male alopecia patients. Hair loss in this area is categorical.
‍
Since then in Gardel we adopted this challenge of implanting on lateral processes. In a short time we achieved what we now call the "triangle of youth", which is now one of the pillars in the restoration of the natural lines of hair implantation, giving the patient a better aesthetic appearance and youthful appearance, hence the name triangle of youth.

Patients with more advanced baldness patterns usually prefer the largest amount of grafts in the least amount of interventions possible. At GHRI, any surgery that exceeds 2000 grafts is classified as a megassesion.
‍
Our megassesion technique provides the patient with results that were impossible to imagine in the past with a single procedure.
‍
Megassesions are safe, and produce exceptional results when performed by experienced and specially trained surgeons and technicians. It takes years of experience and several hundred patients to achieve the mastery and ability to perform a megasession.
