Senior Member Dr. Michael Meshkin Posted February 5, 2010 Author Senior Member Share Posted February 5, 2010 This is 25 year old patient with a class four on the Norwood scale of hair loss. He is thinning in the frontal hairline, temples and the mid front scalp areas. He didnot have any thinning in the crown area. When he came for consult, he had been using propecia and rogaine for a year and said that he didnot have any improvement and didnot want to use medical treatment. We decided to do a 2000 graft session, ultimately we did: 350 one hair units 475 two hair units 1300 three hair units for a total of 2125 grafts We only worked in the frontal hairline, temples and the mid frontal area, we didnot work on the crown. These are pictures from the before, immediate after, two week follow up and one year post op. He is currently not using any medical treatments.

Senior Member dakota3 Posted February 8, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted February 8, 2010 Dr Meshkin, Did this gentleman have native hair on top? Did you shave it before the pics were taken, or was he completley bald? The reason I ask is because this appears to be a phenomenel result with only 2100 grafts used.

Senior Member mattj Posted February 8, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted February 8, 2010 Yes, that's a lot of coverage for such a low number of grafts. It doesn't look like he had much native hair left up there either. Good stuff. I am a patient and representative of Dr Rahal.

Regular Member Dr. William Lindsey Posted February 8, 2010 Regular Member Share Posted February 8, 2010 I agree with MattJ. Great result with smaller graft count than I would have guessed. Must have been great donor hair. Dr. Lindsey McLean VA William H.

Senior Member Dr. Michael Meshkin Posted February 8, 2010 Author Senior Member Share Posted February 8, 2010 The patient is a class IV a and had minimal amount of hair in the frontal central area. We rebuild the frontal hair line,the temples and added density to the mid scalp area. I did shave the area we worked on, and unfortunetly I wasnot able to locate a preshaved picture. but if you look closely you can tell the minimal amount of native hair he had. Thanks mattj, and Dr. lindsey for your kind comments. Dr. Meshkin is recommended on the Hair Transplant Network Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Dr. Michael Meshkin Posted February 10, 2010 Author Senior Member Share Posted February 10, 2010 We cropped the photos for more close up pictures, I think you can see the hair line better closeup. I will see if I have any photos without flash to post here. Dr. Meshkin is recommended on the Hair Transplant Network Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
