Procedure detail
This is a patient who came in for follow-up about 4 years after his first surgery. In total, he had received approximately 3500 grafts to the hairline, temples, temple points, and vertex. He received 787 singles, 1983 doubles, and 835 big grafts. He had an initial transplant followed by two small procedures to touch up thinning areas.
Interestingly, he is most happy with the temple points as he feels that this made a significant impact with a small number of grafts.

Bald class
Norwood stage 3 Vertex
In terms of the receding hairline, stage 3 vertex balding is a less drastic version of stage 3.
However, people experiencing stage 3 vertex balding will also begin losing hair on the crown of their head. This often starts as one small bald spot.
