Clinical Presentation
Farjo B, Farjo N ([PMID:24017984]) note that dense packing may not be feasible or effective for patients with coarse or curly hair types, highlighting the importance of hair characteristics in determining suitability for the procedure.
Management
Farjo B, Farjo N ([PMID:24017984]) describe dense packing as a technique aiming for higher graft density to create a more even and natural hair appearance post-surgery, suitable for patients with adequate donor hair and stable hair loss patterns.
Key Recommendations
Farjo B, Farjo N ([PMID:24017984]) recommend selecting patients with ample donor hair, stable hair loss conditions, and favorable hair-to-skin contrast for dense packing to optimize outcomes. (Evidence: Expert opinion)
