Types of three hair grafts |
|
|
There are three different types of three hair natural follicular groups. Understanding the anatomy of the individual groups is essential to the safe dissection of the grafts with minimal damage or trauma to the hairs, as well as, the insurance of the production of natural three hair follicular groups. Natural follicular groups consisting of three or more hairs assist with the grafting and coverage of the top of the scalp and internal frontal areas.
Type one consist of three hairs lined up in a row. Type two consists of two hairs exiting from the same follicular canal with one hair exiting lateral to this in a separate follicular canal, and type three consists of three hairs exiting from the same follicular canal. I call this third type a T-pee formation because it resembles an Indian's T-pee. These three types were discovered and named by John P. Cole, MD in 1998.
