Procedure detail
FUT performed on a 71 year old Caucasian male
with:- ~90% white hair and ~10% brown hair - NW Class V- Donor
density of 45-55 FU/cm²- Hair diameter of 65-75 microns Treatment
plan:After a profound preoperative examination with his general
practitioner and after a preoperative blood analysis and cardiologic check-up,
we performed a Follicular Unit Strip Transplantation with 2950 follicular units
to reshape the face and fill in the mid head area and temporal peaks (~200
single FU + 100 double FU each side)
The patient is extremely happy with his result after 8 months. He explained that
in reality he is now 8 months older but he looks 15 years younger than on his
preoperative pictures. The reconstruction of the temporal peaks is one of the
most essential points for an aesthetic and beautiful result.
Bald class
Norwood stage 5
Occurs when the connecting bridge of hair disappears leaving a single large bald area on the front and top of the scalp. The hair on the sides of the scalp remains relatively high.
