Procedure detail
This patient in his early 60's came to see Dr Wong with a view to gaining as
much coverage as possible in one session to address all areas of his scalp. On
inspection of his donor it was found to be a little limited in terms of the
number of grafts that Dr Wong would be able to harvest.
Despite the
limited numbers Dr Wong was able use these grafts to great effect and build a
new mature hairline to better frame his face, add greater density through the
mid scalp and create a natural swirl into his crown to provide the full coverage
he was looking for.
With careful planning and placement Dr Wong was able
to give remarkable coverage which resulted in an excellent cosmetic improvement
using just 2620 grafts.
The patient is taking medication to maintain his
native hair.
