TC17 Dear Sr: In response to your passionate comments, I am a Plastic Surgeon and treat patients with a huge variety of problems as far as hair related issues and other conditions. Obviously you personally are not in need for reconstructive hair restoration but believe me there are a lot of people with scarring alopecia who do not know where to go or if it is even possible to do this as a lot of surgeons do not do much of this type of work. I will add more examples of male pattern baldness anyway.

59 year old male developed an angio fibro sarcoma of the maxilla on the right side, for which he underwent an extensive resection followed by radiation therapy. He had male pattern baldness and has had further hair loss due to the radiation therapy required for the treatment of the sarcoma. We did a total of 926 grafts in two sessions.

68 year old female who had a previous facelift and forehead lift from another doctor came to consult for hairloss. She had scar alopecia recession at the front temporal area, particularly at the frontal hairline and sideburns. She wanted to undergo another facelift so we planned on doing hair transplant combined with the facelift and blepharoplasty all in one procedure. Her ending graft count was 1032 follicular unit grafts.
