Hi Everyone,
We would like to present below a case of a patient at Norwood V stage. Below you can find the results 12 months after the surgery.
Patient Details: 27 years old patient. The patient was not using any medication prior to the surgery. The crown area was not implanted during the surgery because the patient was recommended to start using Finasteride. This greatly affected the density increase in the mid scalp and crown area, which allowed us to save a great number of grafts for the future.
Surgical Plan: Hairline reconstruction, density increase in the frontal, fronto-temporal area and mid scalp. The surgery was performed in 1 day and 2843 grafts were implanted. 350 fine single grafts were implanted in the hairline,1950 grafts in the frontal area and 543 in the mid scalp.
Hair type: caucasian, light brown and average hair thickness.
0.8 and 0.9mm motorised punch was used for the extraction.
Graft Breakdown
1s (thin): 350
1s (normal): 108
2s: 1252
3s y 4s: 1133
Overall hair/graft ratio: 2.23
