A 53-year-old man underwent a face lift, upper and lower blepharoplasty, and hair transplantation consisting of a 1300 micrograft and minigraft megasession as a single procedure. This was done by using the triangular pieces of scalp from the retroauricular occipital areas that would have gone to waste otherwise. The length of the surgical procedure was 6.5 hours and was done under general anesthesia in the hospital with an overnight stay. He is shown in Figure 4 before and at 8 months postoperative; he has also dyed his hair. Further hair growth is expected.

A 48-year-old woman had great concerns about her hair thinning on the front part of her scalp. She underwent a face lift, upper and lower blepharoplasty, and hair transplantation consisting of 900 micrografts and minigrafts as a single procedure, also by recycling the triangular pieces of scalp from the retroauricular occipital area. The length of the surgical procedure was 6 hours and was done under intravenous sedation and local anesthesia in my office surgical suite. She is shown pre-operatively and I year postoperatively.

A 56-year-old man underwent a face lift and hair transplantation consisting of a 1300 micrograft and minigraft megasession as a single procedure. He had low hair density in the donor site, so I used a horizontal ellipse as seen in Figure 2, so that a larger number of grafts could be made for him. The length of the surgical procedure was 6 hours, it was done under general anesthesia in the hospital, and the patient went home the same day. He is shown before and only 7 months after the procedure; further hair growth is expected (Fig. 6).
