Procedure detail
Extensive hair loss patterns are not ideal in terms of surgical
hair restoration so the design and yield are critical to creating a meaningful
result. This patient has about 5000 grafts as a donor supply so this initial
treatment of 2816 follicular units was focused on the frontal region to achieve
the most impact. There was also some subtle framing added to the temples. The
grafts consisted of 802 singles, 1827 doubles, and 187 threes - a total of 5017
hairs. As the procedure was only 6.5 months ago, the result should continue to
show nice cosmetic change over the next 6+ months.
Bald class
Norwood stage 7
By stage 7, the baldness also begins to affect the sides of the head, until only a thin ring of hair encircles the outside of the head. The hairs that grow are likely to be very thin and weak.
