Procedure detail
This hair restoration patient is a 34 year old male with male pattern hair loss in the crown area. PreOp photo is taken after patient had been on finasteride for a little over a year. The amount of grafts placed was calculated by taking the area needing coverage, and utilizing an average density 40-45 FU/cm2. Given result at 10 months, the patient can reasonably expect that he has about 80% of his grafts visible, so that he should get another 20% increase in density. As well, over the ensuing 6 months to 12 months after the 12 month post op mark, the hair will continue to increase in caliber, which will also add significant cosmetic result to his hair transplant procedure outcome.
