Seems like you are meticulous in your initial care and followup of this procedure, obviously a reason why the results are so impressive. I sincerely appreciate your enlightening information on this subject. Looking forward to more posts on your techniques. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member DrBauman Posted January 10, 2007 Regular Member Share Posted January 10, 2007 Originally posted by Hair2day:Are these neck pillows readily available at pharmacies? There are all sorts of pillows available. I've provided these inflatable ones for our patients for years. They seem to work best and are adjustable. We also have a variety of neck pillows available for our patients DURING their procedures. Did I also mention the patient sits on a massager w/ heat during their procedure? Alan J.

Senior Member Drew35 Posted December 25, 2009 Senior Member Share Posted December 25, 2009 Originally posted by DrBauman:He was looking for a similar hairline restoration to the example I posted above. Looking at Joe's pictures, it looks like I prefer to 'round-out' the temple recessions a little more than Dr. Wong. I'll have to look back at some more photos, but I think I do it a little different for each patient. --Dr. B. Dr Bauman, When you look at some more of your photos will you please post patients with significant hairloss like Joe had? Joe was a significant Norwood 6 and I don't believe you can fill in the recession as aggressive, on a Norwood 6, as the example you posted. It's like comparing apples to oranges.

Senior Member tacolinowest Posted May 19, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted May 19, 2013 whats up fellas,, just planning for the future, with this type of temple peaks, what would you advise me to do in the near future (aka 2nd ht) do you think they will recede more?

Senior Member tacolinowest Posted May 19, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted May 19, 2013 What do you guys think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Cant decide Posted May 19, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted May 19, 2013 I personally dont think temple peaks are as important as many on here do. As long as they are not totally gone, its a waste of grafts unless you are a NW III or less IMO.

Senior Member hairthere Posted May 19, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted May 19, 2013 Your TPs are fine. However, I must disagree with CD. I think they are paramount to making a Ht look natural. A strong hairline with receded TPs ends up looking like a hairpiece.

Senior Member Cant decide Posted May 20, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted May 20, 2013 The problem is that most NW 5 and up simply dont have the grafts to deicate to TP. Dont get me wrong, if they are totally eroded, then yes I agree they need to be brought back for balance sake but as long and your peaks are there in some form, it serves the purpose of providing balance. Believe be, if I had endless donor supply, certainly, I would hit mine but for me, my TP on the right is still in good shape while the one on the left is weak but still there. I do not think restoring them would make a huge impact on my overall look. Plus, I wonder if a conservative hairline which most NW 5 and up are given would not lookoff if their peaks are perfectly intact. Hairthere is an exception since hewas able to get a less conservative hairline. Although Joetronics look good as well so I may be wrong.

Senior Member greatjob Posted May 20, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted May 20, 2013 I had some success improving my temple points with minoxidil. It didn't work miracles but I got some pretty good regrowth, just a thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Cant decide Posted May 20, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted May 20, 2013 CD, did Minox work on your hairline as well? No but by the time I used it, the hairline was essentially gone. It did help with the peaks though for sure as well as helping to strengthen the temples overall.
