Steven Gabel, MD, FACS Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 This patient requested to thicken the entire scalp where he was thinning. Initial examination showed a thinning frontal forelock with severe alopecia in the frontal scalp and moderate alopecia of the mid-scalp and crown. He also had moderate temple recession. 4489 grafts were placed in one session to achieve his desired goals. The photos were taken immediately after surgery. He came to us from out of town and will send updated photos as he grows in.

Senior Member hdude46 Posted August 9, 2012 Senior Member Share Posted August 9, 2012 I would be interested in seeing this result too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steven Gabel, MD, FACS Posted August 12, 2012 Author Share Posted August 12, 2012 Slickers and hdude46 I'll check to see the latest postoperative photos I have on this patient and post them. Sorry I did not see your question for the last couple days: as some of you may know, I'm in training for my 3rd full Ironman triathlon, which I'm doing in Arizona this November. It takes a ton of time to train for the event so I'm unable to check the forums as often as I would like. When I get to the office this week, I'll see what we have. I appreciate you asking for follow up photos.

Steven Gabel, MD, FACS Posted August 23, 2012 Author Share Posted August 23, 2012 Here are the requested photos. This patient is from out of town so I only have the 1 year result photos. At the time of these photos, he had grown in very well and hopefully I can obtain more recent photographs.
