  1. Twenty-eight year old who was losing his hair at a rapid pace. Class 5 hair loss pattern/ 3,300 grafts were utilized. Photos shown are pre-op. & 3 months post-op. Patient is very pleased with his 3 months post-op results and is looking forward to his one year results. I will update future results.
  2. Midwest00, Thank you for the positive comments. Grafts are strategically placed to "shrink the crown" by reinforcing the"back sides", (lateral humps), as you have noticed. They were not put in the middle-I will evaluate this patient's hair loss yearly. He has 6 more months of thickening and growth and I will post at 9 months. Sincerely, Dr. Keller
  3. Great 6 month results utilizing approx. 2,900 grafts. This 33 year old patient with a 3/4 hair loss pattern is looking forward to his one year post-op visit. A two layer trichophytic closure was performed in the donor region. I will post 12 month results. Comments are encouraged.
  4. Follow up 6 month patient visit. 40 year old who returns after having 2,870 grafts. Photos demonstrate progression from 3 to 6 months, which includes significant thickening of his hair. The trichophytic closure has healed nicely. Will post again at 9 months. Dr. Keller
  5. Hello HairlessHero,and Irishsailor, Thank you for the positive comments. This patient opted for a FUT procedure due to his work schedule. He did not want to shave any areas on his head. I do perform FUE hair transplants. -Dr.Keller
  6. 35 year old patient who wished to restore his frontal hairline with a conservative number of grafts. Approximately 2,200 grafts were utilized to re-establish the patient's frontal framework. Photos shown are pre-op and eight months post-op.
  7. 28 year old patient who has a class 3A plus hair loss pattern with weak temporal parietal angles and a weak hairline. 2,465 grafts were utilized in his hair restoration procedure. Photos shown are pre-op ,immediate post-op, 11 month post-op, and 2 layer tricophytic donor closure.
  8. Thank you for your interest in this patient. A few lucky people can obtain this transformation with surgical and medical therapy. As you can tell from this patient's donor region, as seen in the trichophytic scar photo, his hair is like rope. This patient has the best hair quality for hair restoration. Most of his hair groupings were bulky four hair follicular units. I maximized the appearance of density by utilizing dense packing in the front hairline and used less density in the mid-scalp with careful shingling and then utilizing a staggered group array towards the back, giving the image of coverage. This patient experienced thickening of hairs in the mid-scalp with medical therapy. The patient was supposed to have a second procedure to add density in the mid-scalp and crown, but has been satisfied with one procedure so far. Sincerely, Dr. Keller
  9. Thank you Slickers & Future_HT_Doc for the positive comments. I will keep everyone updated with his progress. Dr. Keller
  10. 40 year old with 4V patterned hair loss who had approximately 3,850 grafts transplanted, including a touch up utilizing approx. 700 grafts to repair a childhood scar. Density of grafts varies with approx. 40 grafts per cm2 in a feathered and shingled density placement in front and with a larger graft placement in a natural staggered array of 35 cm2 in regions behind the framework. This is one of the most pleasant persons that I have worked with and I believe this procedure has enhanced his appearance greatly. Photos shown are pre-op, post-op and 15 months post-op.
  11. Good question, I usually put grafts around the borders. "Shrinking" the crown is referring to making the crown a class or 2 smaller in appearance (ie. 5V vertex to a 4V or 3V vertex). In this way the pattern mimics what one sees naturally. Dr. Keller
  12. Thank you again for your comments I used approximately 750-800 grafts, with this pattern, to "shrink" the crown and give it a natural appearance. Dr. Keller
  13. Raphael, Thank you for the positve comment. In a class 5 hair loss pattern I usually make the crown smaller in this pattern, so that if there is future hair loss it does not look dense in the middle and weak in the periphery (a halo pattern ). My patients are usually on propecia before surgery unless they have other concerns. Sincerely, Dr, Keller
