The link does not lead to the video as it states that the account is suspended. I looked at this near to the time I had mine and found it helped me understand what the procedure is. http://www.nature.com/nrgastro/journal/v6/n1/images/ncpgasthep1316-f2.jpg

Marvick please i want your opinion regarding this procuedure : http://drmehmetkaplan.com/player.asp?id=56 its a new laser technique for pilonidal..and the thing is one of the pioneers of this technique it 10 mins away from my home !!
Hey, Power guy New to this site tonight, just saw one of your other posts. man i got it in the mid right cheek also. Can it or is it still a pilo if it's not on or near the tailbone?
ron ream.. yesterday i went to a dr..it is an infected pilo in my case..im sorry to give you the bad news if u r in my shoes..
Hey, Powerguy This site is a little hard to chat on, are you on FB (Facebook)? If you are send me a friends request. At least you have insurance. hang in there Brother.
http://drmehmetkaplan.com/player.asp?id=56 I have seen this one which is the laser one and I am unsure as there are just 2 holes made. The whole point of the cleft lift is that it is done away from the midline and a flap is created which is then folded to the other side and I did not see this in the video. Did you have a look at the link I posted above? as that is helpful or it has been helpful to me.
@ maverick i think uve missed the cleft-lift clip .. it is in this link : http://drmehmetkaplan.com/player.asp?id=23 The dr i want to have surgery with is the one performing in this clip.and since you have expierence with cleft lift i wanted your opinion in the way hes performing it..is he seems to be good ?please advice me @ ron ream . sure give me your fb.. P.S: i dont have insurance
I don't think it is, I did skip a little felt a bit squeamish but I have found something very useful and it explains a lot of things. In the video you posted the link on I could not see a flap being created which made me think it might not be a cleft lift procedure. I would definitely ask the surgeon if it was a cleft lift surgery.
