Dr. Carman 3099 FU grafts, 10 Months Post Op


Recommended Posts

Second Procedure: Additional photos are one year post op following 2740 FU procedure to address crown, midscalp, and refinement of hairline and previous frontal areas. 2740 Total FU's :470 1's; 2156 2's; 114 3's. Tricophytic closure. They are the last five photos in the series.

First Procedure:

This is a 60 YO male with androgenic alopecia, with thinning predominantly affecting hairline, FF, posterior FF, and bilateral temples and crown. Our plan was to recreate the frontal hairline, FF, post FF, temples and some crown.. Total area was approx 15cm x 7cm = 105 cm2, plus another 40 cm2 in crown. Decision was made to concentrate on the anterior and midscalp portion, allowing finasteride to work on the crown over the ensuing year, noting any effect at that time. Goals: Recreate hairline and FF and bilateral temple recessions, post FF and anterior crown. Wait to see how finasteride affects crown, possibly place 100 or so FU grafts there at this procedure to decrease severity of appearance.

Ellipse 30 cm x 1.0 cm x 110 (est) (in situ). 3099 total, 1029 1’s; 1990 2’s; 80 3’s.

Tricophytic closure.Patient will have second procedure of about the same number in January to address crown.

Very nice transformation already with a single procedure! Do you have a top down results pic to see how much of the top was addressed so far? I like the shorter hair on the patient, which seems to make him look younger and more distinguished at the same time...hope that makes sense. I can certainly see why he'd be happy.

@Hairthere- Attached is a photo of this patient at POD#8.

 

@Janna; Thank you very much for your kind assessment :D-

Attached is a "top-down" or "birds' eye" view!

 

(I've also added both to the album as well-)
