Individual Graft Technique (IGT) Now Being Performed with Safe Scribe System
Posted on Thu, Feb 16, 2012 @ 08:05 AM
There are things we don’t like when we look in the mirror and unfortunately, hair loss is often one of them. Before Individual Graft Technique, or IGT, with Safe Scribe procedures, alternatives to thinning hair were limited; some methods also provided undue risk to the patient. However, as technologies have grown, so have hair restoration alternati ves. With the new IGT using the Safe Scribe system, hair restoration is simpler, less painful, and has a much higher rate of satisfaction. As with any procedure, it is important to choose an experienced clinician who is highly qualified in IGT with Safe Scribe protocols and safety.
Individual Graft Technique with Safe Scribe procedures are different from older hair restoration procedures in that IGT is minimally invasive, relatively pain-free and non-surgical. IGT uses unwanted hairs from other parts of your body, as well as the back of the head, so that areas where hair is missing can be carefully filled in. The Safe Scribe tool allows for complete and careful extraction of the entire hair follicle for transfer to the desired area. As long as the bulb, dermal papillae, capsule and outer root sheath of the hair remains intact, transfer can be wildly successful and result in an exceptional, natural look.
Unlike older technologies that utilized machines or other less precise tools, Safe Scribe is operated by an experienced clinician. Safe Scribe also eliminates unsightly scarring sometimes left by older techniques. For example, unlike the FUT procedure, Safe Scribe does not leave a linear scar. In addition, there are virtually no limitations as to who may utilize the procedure. Because Safe Scribe is a clinician-operated tool, you reap the benefits of personal attention to detail during your procedure.
