Steven Gabel, MD, FACS Posted November 14, 2010 Share Posted November 14, 2010 This is a 59-year-old woman who had naturally deep frontal temporal angles. She consulted with us to fill in the area and to give a more feminine hairline. She desired to be able to wear her hair back; however, because of the lack of hair in the frontal temporal angles, she always wore her hair down to conceal the area. In one session, 2,111 grafts were placed bilaterally into the frontal temporal angles. Photographs show the patient preoperatively, six months after surgery, and one year later. In the six month photographs you can see all the transplanted hairs as they are shorter than the rest of the patient’s hair. When she was in for her one year visit, she said that the transplanted hairs are now long enough that she can tuck them behind her ears and she is happy that she can now pull her hair back and does not always have to wear her bangs forward. A video will follow that shows the one year result. Graft Count Single hair grafts: 521 Two hair grafts: 1,137 Three hair grafts: 440 Four hair grafts: 13 Total grafts: 2,111 Total Hairs Transplanted: 4,167 Steven Gabel, MD, FACS, FISHRS Diplomate, American Board of Hair Restoration Surgery Diplomate, American Board of Facial Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery Diplomate, American College of Surgeons Gabel Hair Restoration Center Portland, Oregon 503-693-1118 Email Dr. Gabel directly at drgabel@gabelcenter.com Dr. Gabel's Website Dr. Steven Gabel is a member of the Coalition of Independent Hair Restoration Physicians.

Senior Member Mercury Posted November 15, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted November 15, 2010 That was a great presentation and with photographs to show - and the results are fabulous. I don't see many female hair transplant results presented so this is good to see. Great job. Life is like a game of cards. The hand that is dealth you represents determinism; the way you play it is free will. Jawaharal Nehru Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member RCWest Posted November 15, 2010 Senior Member Share Posted November 15, 2010 Wow considering the rate of hair growth, her temporal transplants took and started growing from the beginning.

Bill - Seemiller Posted November 16, 2010 Share Posted November 16, 2010 RCWest, The work above was presented by Dr. Gabel, not Dr. Dorin. Thus, I've made the correction to your post. :-) Best wishes, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
