What is the role of the surgeon in a hair transplant?
Because the actual work takes often many people, the work load is distributed to technicians; however, the doctor must do the following: (1) give the anesthetic, (2) do all of the surgical planning including the design and distribution of the grafts, (3) make determinations on the size of the strip (if a strip surgery is one) or the instruments that are appropriate if FUE is done, (4) Perform the strip surgery or the FUE which includes the extraction of either the strip or the FUE coring component, (5) Orchestrate the individual’s roles, control quality of graft management among the staff who prepare the grafts and may insert them into sites made by the surgeon (site making must be done by the surgeon)?
