The Hitzig Linear Punch Clear Winner

The following is a reprint from an article at Regrowth.com.

Annual Meeting of The International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery - September 16-20, 1998. 

The International Society of Hair Restoration Surgery (ISHRS) is the largest organization of doctors specializing in hair transplantation in the world. Each year their annual meeting is one of the most informative meetings not only about hair transplantation, but about new research being done into subjects like gene therapy, hair cloning, new medications and more. Many of the doctors involved work with research companies, such as Merck, in testing new medications (such as Propecia) and often present the latest research at the meeting. This year over 500 doctors gathered in Washington, DC to discuss their findings of the latest medical advances in hair restoration. Surgical Controversies; Follow up from the WAHRS Live Workshop This segment was a follow up to the WAHRS conference earlier this year. Several transplants were done using multiple techniques to compare and see which techniques showed the best results. Six month follow up results were presented at the conference showing the preliminary results.

* CO2 Laser vs. Erbium Laser vs. Hitzig Linear Punch Barry DiBernardo,MD; Craig Ziering, DO; Gary Hitzig, MD

This method compared two CO2 lasers, an Erbium laser, and Dr. Gary Hitzig's slot punch device. The Hitzig punch clearly showed the greatest density, followed closely by the Erbium laser. The Hitzig punch also showed the least redness and crusting, again followed closely by the Erbium laser.
