November 20th, 2009

This patient previously had artificial hair fibers transplanted into the frontal half of his scalp with the hopes of having a restored appearance for his hair loss. As is common the result was an unnatural appearance and massive scarring. In the before photos you can see the amount of scarring appears as a "helmet" in the exposed recipient area. The patient traveled from Italy to have two repair sessions with Dr. Wong for the results you see below.

October 8th, 2009

This local patient felt that his existing hairline aged him prematurely. In early 2009 Dr. Hasson used 3009 grafts to rebuild a strong hairline but with proper temple recession to insure his results were appropriate for his age. 7 Months and 3 weeks later the patient returned to show us the result that you see below.

Dr. Hasson/3009 Grafts/One Session/7.75 Months Post-op

October 2nd, 2009

This local patient wanted to have his hairline and crown area restored so he would look more like his actual age. He understood that his juvenile hairline would not be natural for the long term so an adult hairline with proper temple recession was constructed. Dr. Hasson also reconstructed the natural whorl pattern of his crown for the result you see below. This was accomplished with 3113 grafts in one session.

This local NW6 patient originally came to see Dr. Wong in July of 2005 and received 4953 grafts in one session. He returned in August of 2006 for a second session of 2265 grafts. We presented his case in photos and video two years ago and I have included one of his older photos from that time frame to compare. It is the second photo in the collage.

We have recently started calling some of our patients that were in our early video gallery because we are trying to update those videos to high definition to be in line with the new videos we have posted over the past two years. He was happy to return for new photos and video and to show us his new hairstyle. His new video will be posted on September 18th in our "H&W Video Fridays" thread.

Dr. Wong/5409 Grafts/ONE SESSION/16 Months Post-Op


August 28th, 2009

This patient came to see Dr. Wong in May of 2008. He had a hairline that was naturally already thick and not receding so no work was done in that area however his crown had thinned considerably and made the patient very self conscious. Dr. Wong and his team rebuilt the patient's natural whorl pattern using the lateral slit technique so the angle and direction could be oriented with maximum control. 2562 grafts were used to achieve the result shown.

Dr. Wong/2562 Grafts/One Session/Crown ONLY/15 Months Post-Op

August 21st, 2009

This is a unique case that no doubt most of you have not seen the likes of before.

This local patient underwent a procedure many years ago to attach a hair system to his scalp. At one point some clinics would create "tunnels" in a patient's scalp tissue in order for hooks from a system to latch onto. We have seen several of these cases over the years and have reversed them all successfully.

Dr. Hasson performed two procedures on this patient. The first session was performed to remove the tunnels and give the scalp time to heal. Once done Dr. Hasson and his team were able to move 4134 grafts in one session. Ten months later (and without hair coloring) the patient has a much more manageable head of hair that is not subject to routine maintenance (and infection) like his old hair system.

Dr. Hasson/4134 Grafts/ Ten Months/ Repair

August 14, 2009

This local patient suffered from what is known as traction alopecia. In his case it was caused by wearing the traditional "Patka" turban common among Sikh youth and is a condition we see in our office often because of the large Sikh community in Vancouver. His hairline was effectively pulled out over a period of time due to how tight the Patka is worn. Dr. Wong and his team moved 1680 grafts in one session to rebuild a mature but strong hairline that frames his face better and to restore a more youthful appearance. The result shown is ten months after surgery.

Dr. Wong/5257 Grafts/ONE SESSION/ Ten Months

July 24,09

This patient had two previous "1000 graft each" surgeries in the UK that left him with with these unsatisfactory results depicted in the before photos. Dr. Hasson placed the majority of the 4371 grafts in the frontal zone both to provide naturalness and hide the old work. Some grafts were placed mid scalp and into the crown for overall balance. This patient will be back for scar revision to reduce the scar from his UK procedures and to add density in the mid scalp and crown.

July 17th,09

For this patient Dr. Hasson was able to achieve quite a transformation. A rebuild hairline and frontal zone with coverage back to the crown has given him the appear of a full head of hair. This video is nine months post-op.

July 10th, 2009

This patient had two procedures with Dr. Wong, the first of which was in early 2002. The second procedure was performed in 2003 for a total of 2932 grafts. The final result shown is six years post-op. The hairline and crown were the focus of each procedure.

July 3rd, 2009

This local to Vancouver patient wanted to have an improved appearance for his wedding. Two procedures were performed with the second being ten months ago. The hairline was rebuilt in a conservative fashion but with healthy density.

Proper temple recession was established so that the result would be consistent with that of an adult male. His cousins now call him the "Persian Elvis".

Thank you, thank you very much.

Dr. Hasson/ 8062 Grafts/ 2 Sessions/ 10 Months

June 25, 2009

This patient had two previous mini-graft procedures in the early nineties. Because he was not informed at the time about Rogaine or Propecia he continued to lose hair for nine years until he was a NW6+ with two donor scars and very obvious and pluggy looking grafts making up his sparse hairline. Three sessions over the course of 2.5 years were performed for a total of 7917 grafts. Results shown are five years post-op.

Dr. Hasson/4742 Grafts in One Session/10 Months

Thursday April 9, 2009 (Early post before Easter)
This patient approached Dr. Wong with the goal of achieving as much coverage as possible in one session. His donor area characteristics presented an opportunity to perform a larger than average session where 5698 grafts were taken in one session. The priority areas were the hairline and the top with any grafts left over going into the crown. The results shown are only eight months post-op.

Dr. Wong/5698 Grafts in One Session/ 8 Months

This patient came to see Dr. Hasson to address his obvious areas of hair loss. In one procedure Dr. Hasson and his team moved 4171 grafts to establish a completely new hairline and solid coverage over most of the top of his scalp. The crown was not addressed as Proscar has been holding it well.

The patient is available to meeting if his schedule permits.

Dr. Hasson/4171 Grafts/One Session/7 Months


This patient came from central Canada and asked Dr. Wong to give him as much of a restoration as possible in one session. He was 26 years old and felt that his hair loss made him look considerably older than he was.

Dr. Wong rebuilt a hairline that included proper recession for an adult male and gave him a much younger appearance without front-loading the scalp. The patient is 16 months post-op.

Jotronic,

Great idea for the post, I look forward to the weekly updates. But getting onto this particular case. This is amazing! I cannot quite believe this transformation. The graft count is impressive but the coverage is even more impressive. I dont quite know the words to express my feelings regarding this result. Maybe because I feel that I can relate to the loss at a similar age. Is it possibe that you could post a pic of this hairline so that I can use it as referance for myself? Would it be possible to see the progressive results for this patient during those months?

Once again, great post!

Raphael,

Glad you like our idea for Video Fridays and the first result shown as well.

Unfortunately I do not have progression photos but I'll ask the patient if he took any himself. With regards to the hairline photos there is only the one where I am holding the hairline up and exposed.

Very nice. In fact, the detailed video documentation makes the result (previously seen in just photos) all the more impressive.

Joe,

Kudos to you for developing the Video Fridays idea. Photos are great, but there's nothing like a quality video to show a better presentation of the result. It's the next best thing to seeing the result in person.

These patients look great!

Bill
