Dr. Vito Quatela-1,600 graft session

[Dr. Vito Quatela]

This 38 year old male patient came to us in 2007 seeking a hair transplant to create a new frontal hairline. The patient’s first session consisted of a total of 1,600 grafts with a distribution of 40% single hair grafts, 30% two hair grafts and 30% three hair grafts. The team concentrated on the frontal area using single hair grafts to create a natural looking irregular hairline. Following this, a combination of two and three hair grafts was used to obtain a denser concentration of hair in the central tuft. Due to the patient’s very fine hair, some of the ones and twos were combined to help achieve greater density. The team used the stick and place method to achieve these results using 19 and 20 gauge needles. The patient was very pleased with his results and decided to have a second session in 2010. Follow-up pictures will be posted.
