    2640 Grafts 1 Session

    65 year old male underwent 1 session of 2640 follicular unit grafts (strip harvesting) by Dr. Sheldon S. Kabaker
  2. The scar take 3-6 months to mature. The scar is usually hidden as downward growing hair actually grows through the scar. A cowlick, when it exists, presents a slight problem as one side of the hairline has its hair growing backward so the scar might be seen. When this condition is noted , I always inform the patient of it. I tell them that if after 6 months the scar on part of the hairline is a concern, they might need a few hundred follicular unit grafts to completely camouflage it. I have only had only 5 patients who actually had grafts done. This proceure can be done on almost anyone who has a high hairline without a history of hair loss or thinning. Those with tight scalps need scalp expansion making it a 2 stage procedure for them. This is not a procedure for those with progressive pattern baldness . I have done this surgery on quite a few African-American women with traction alopecia secondary to use of relaxers and tight hairstyles
  3. This 33 year old female underwent 600 grafts to the bilateral temple and frontal hairline due to traction alopecia. Results show before grafting and 14 months post grafting with an excellent result.
  4. 46 year old female underwent a temporal scalp reduction in March 2008, followed by 655 follicular unit grafts in November 2008 as a result of traction alopecia. Photos show before, after scalp reduction, and after grafts.
  5. 49 Year old female with lifetime history of deep frontotemporal recession, and 10 year history of hairloss in the center of the forelock which has been stable for at least 3 years.
  6. 55 year old male, class VI baldness underwent one session of 2550 grafts with relatively low density packing. To accommodate the patients budget, this lower number of grafts were performed.
  7. 29 year old female with a high hairline. The patient patient has no history of hairloss.
  8. 52 year old male underwent 1 session of 1700 follicular unit grafts. The patient was a Norwood class 4.
  9. 34 year old male, mild balding pattern. Patient is taking Propecia. Patient underwent one session of 1300 FUG. Shown before and after 6 1/2 months.
  10. 2600 graft session on a 45 year old patient with male pattern baldness and a "trap door" scar of the upper forehead where he had his original juvenile hairline. The center of the hairline was made much lower than most other cases in order to hide this scar.
  11. 30 year old man with receding hairline and slight thinning in the crown. 1300 follicular unit grafts performed on November 26, 2008 with donor strip harvesting.
