Procedure detail
This 58 year old hair restoration patient has Norwood class V hair loss and was started on Finasteride. He underwent 3,331 grafts utilizing 1-772, 2-1605, 3-548, 4-406 (7250) hairs; many of the 3's and 4's were probably very close 1's and 2's, but with his curly fine hair, we opted to keep these together. Rather than provide light coverage to the entire crown, we transplanted medium densities only to the periphery of the crown and none in the very center. This creates a more natural look if he decides to not do another hair transplant procedure for awhile.
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.
