This patient came to Dr Rahal with hair loss in the frontal zone. The recipient area contained virtually no native hair and I would place him at a 2A on the Norwood scale. Dr Rahal transplanted 2026 grafts via FUE extraction, giving the patient a dense and natural hairline.

Bald class
Norwood class 2A.
The class A variation of the Norwood scale is a slightly different and less common progression of hair loss. The main differences are that the hairline recedes back uniformly, without leaving an island of hair in the middle, and there is no bald area at the vertex. Instead, the hairline progresses directly from front to back.
