Steven Gabel, MD, FACS Posted January 31, 2012 Posted January 31, 2012 This 28-year-old gentleman desired greater density in the frontal and mid-scalp. He had been losing his hair for a few years, but felt it had stabilized. He was started on medical therapy, consisting of finasteride and Rogaine, to further stabilize his hair loss. 3,033 grafts were placed into the frontal hairline and frontal mid-scalp in one session with a high-density graft placement technique with slits oriented in the coronal plane. The photographs, taken six months post operatively, show tremendous growth and increased fullness in the transplanted areas. Since he is only 6 months out, we expect continued growth and maturation of the transplanted hairs. Additionally, some growth can be seen in the crown area, which was treated solely with medical therapy (this is illustrated in the final photo). We will report his one-year results in the future.

Senior Member chrisdav Posted January 31, 2012 Senior Member Posted January 31, 2012 That is impressive. 2 poor unsatisfactory hair transplants performed in the UK. Based on vast research and meeting patients, I travelled to see Dr Feller in New York to get repaired.
