This is a gentleman in his early 60's who came to my office with a Norwood Class 6-7 pattern of hair loss. Over the course of 2 procedures, we were able to transplant 4502 follicular units (HT #1 2287 grafts, HT #2 2215 grafts). This was the maximum number of follicles we were able to safely harvest due to his donor hair limitation.

The patient's stated goal was to increase the density across his entire scalp. We agreed that the front half was more important cosmetically then the back 1/2, so we settled on a roughly 2:1 distribution of the grafts from front to back. In all, we transplanted 3110 grafts to the frontal and top sections, and 1392 to the crown.
