• Hairline recession and thinning hair over mid-front scalp and crown
  
• No prior surgery
  
• Knew he would wear a short buzz cut, thus he did not want a linear scar
  

 

 

Surgery:

 

 

 

• Goal: advance the hairline and add density using few grafts
  
• FUE hair transplantusing 3000 grafts to fill in a large area; nape hairs used to bring hairline forward.
  

 

 

Surgery Results:

 

 

 

• For a short hair cut, less densely packed follicular units will contribute to a shadow effect that gives the illusion of fullness with FUE hair transplants
  
• Results shown are at 10 months post-operation

Does the doctor have an opinion on tanning, and how long one should wait after his procedure to get a face/ head tan? I feel this patient looks good, but with a tan he would look much, much better due to the unfavorable contrast between his hair color and his skin color.

Hi SugarHighs. Thanks for your question. Dr. Umar says: After 6 weeks it would be fine to tan. Just avoid getting sun burnt in the grafted area
