Hair transplantation surgery before and after result photographs with 2487 grafts

This patient was a 42 years old man who had a procedure completed 2 years ago by another doctor. Unfortunately, he did not receive the density that he was expecting from that procedure. After establishing his medical history and understanding the progression of his hair loss, I diagnosed his condition as Androgenetic Alopecia (male pattern baldness), ruling out any other possible dermatological or medical conditions which can cause hair loss. During our discussion I gathered that the patient’s goal was to add as much density as possible to the frontal 1/3 of his scalp. After examining his donor area I felt that I would be able to get enough grafts to make a considerable difference, but that he would not have the density that he had before his hair loss. I discussed this with the patient to ensure that he understood what was and was not possible. The patient elected to proceed with surgery to gain as much density as possible. 
A total of 2,487 grafts were used. The break down was as follows: 1,033 single hair grafts and 1,454 two hair grafts. I used a significant amount of single hair follicular units which allowed me to create a very natural hairline. This action will allow him to comb his hair without anyone detecting that he has had anything done. This patient was also made aware that he might need additional procedures if his hair loss continues. These are his results 1 year post-op. The patient is extremely happy with his results.
