This is 25 year old patient with a class four on the Norwood scale of hair loss. He is thinning in the frontal hairline, temples and the mid front scalp areas. He didnot have any thinning in the crown area. When he came for consult, he had been using propecia and rogaine for a year and said that he didnot have any improvement and didnot want to use medical treatment. We decided to do a 2000 graft session, ultimately we did:
350 one hair units
475 two hair units
1300 three hair units
for a total of 2125 grafts

We only worked in the frontal hairline, temples and the mid frontal area, we didnot work on the crown.
These are pictures from the before, immediate after, two week follow up and one year post op. He is currently not using any medical treatments.

Dr Meshkin,

Did this gentleman have native hair on top? Did you shave it before the pics were taken, or was he completley bald? The reason I ask is because this appears to be a phenomenel result with only 2100 grafts used.

Yes, that's a lot of coverage for such a low number of grafts. It doesn't look like he had much native hair left up there either. Good stuff.

I agree with MattJ. Great result with smaller graft count than I would have guessed.

Must have been great donor hair.

The patient is a class IV a and had minimal amount of hair in the frontal central area. We rebuild the frontal hair line,the temples and added density to the mid scalp area. I did shave the area we worked on, and unfortunetly I wasnot able to locate a preshaved picture. but if you look closely you can tell the minimal amount of native hair he had.
Thanks mattj, and Dr. lindsey for your kind comments.

We cropped the photos for more close up pictures, I think you can see the hair line better closeup. I will see if I have any photos without flash to post here.

We cropped the photos so that you can see the hairline more close up. Let me know what you think.
