Procedure detail
30 year old male who presents with a desire to increase the volume in his hairline and apex areas so that he can wear his hair down with bangs. He is stable on finasteride. Before photos, immediate after photos, and 8 month post-op photos are presented. Grafts extracted with 0.8 mm punch, with manual extraction. Grafts placed with Hans Hair Implanters. All grafts extracted and placed by the physician.
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.
