Senior Member aaron1234 Posted August 22, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted August 22, 2011 Hey Janna! God, I love this layout. Oh, and the results aren't half bad themselves either! He really had some great early growth at 6 months. The without flash picture is just stellar. Nice work Dr. Paul! btw, the youtube link isn't quite working yet but you probably figured that already.

Regular Member hairlossguy222 Posted August 23, 2011 Regular Member Share Posted August 23, 2011 Beautiful work, beautiful pictures, beautiful presentation. It amazes me that doctors cannot follow suit with the same presentation as this. Well done Janna and SMG. My procedure with Dr. Feller Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Cant decide Posted August 23, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted August 23, 2011 Thanks Janna. You are always very helpful. If ther area is about 100 sq cm, with 2544 grafts, that comes to about 25 grafts per sq cm. Of course, I am sure the grafts were not spread out evenly but that is still a huge area for that number of grafts. This patient's hair to graft ratio is about average at approx. 2.0. so can you tell me what accounts for this patients exceptional result when typically crowns and an area this size in general would require many more grafts? His hair does not appear to be particularly thick. Also, if we could get a general breakdown of graft palcement, that would be great. Thanks in advance.

Senior Member Zup Posted August 24, 2011 Senior Member Share Posted August 24, 2011 I caught this, so I thought I would jump in an answer..... I feel routinely we meet our patients goals with densities, of 25fus/cm2 in the back two-thirds of the male pattern area (and, we can physically transplant densities of 20-80, but it is a matter of WHEN, WHERE, WHY, rarely is there is a need for 60plus, if ever) . For some men their not even concerned with that area. Even the one that are, they don't have the highest expectation and they shouldn’t; do to the ultimate cosmetic significance of this area compared to the front and the need to prioritize where we use this limit donor now and down the road . All that many patients care about is just enough hair to hide the scalp, anything more does not appear much different, so it is waste. I know from the internet, 25fus\cm2 doesn’t come across as much, but is a quart of original density, which can create a foundation and provide just enough hair to hide the scalp. And, for any patient who has a moderately strong possibility to bald, that may be all that may be able to be allocated there. With the average donor yielding on the average 4000-8000fus moderate be 6000, average MPA (200cm2).....yielding 40fus in the front 100cm2 and 20 in the back 100cm2. Like always, Propecia which I believe he started at the same time, stimulated miniaturized hairs, and I believe all and all the patient had good hair characteristics, with no characteristic that hurt him. One last thing, good growth- high yield, if 25fus/cm2 all grow the results look better than if only 70% only grow. Patient Educator, Shapiro Medical.
