Thank you sutureless, Mick50 & 911fan for your positive comments. Patients with thin, fine hair are more difficult to achieve the appearance of having density and cosmetic fullness of their hairline. Carefully staggering and angling the follicular units in their frontal framework is paramount in their appearance. When a patient has a strong family history of hair loss it is important to consider their future options and have a plan. The advantage that this patient has is less contrast between his natural hair color and the hue of his skin. Hair restoration procedures can never equal the follicular units lost, so evaluation of every patient's individual qualities are important so that their appearance looks natural. Comments are welcome, Dr. Keller
