Regular Member Dr. William Reed Posted March 1, 2012 Regular Member Posted March 1, 2012 This gentleman had a maximum harvest of 1528 grafts including 245 double follicular unit grafts. His fine caliber hair made him a good candidate for these 4 hair, double follicular unit grafts. He had had a previous procedure from another physician and he felt that few of the grafts grew. His skin is thin and tight. Hence the removal of the scar from the first procedure and these skin characteristics limited the amount of hair I could obtain. In view of this limitation, he chose not to graft the right side of the hairline, other than grafting the right temporal point, so that he could have more grafts available to graft the crown. He also began finasteride with this procedure. The followup photos are a couple of years after the procedure. William Reed, M.D. Member of the Coalition of Independent Hair Restoration Physicians
Senior Member RCWest Posted March 1, 2012 Senior Member Posted March 1, 2012 Dr. Reed, I honestly feel for the patients that have had to go through the hell he has gone through before finding a doctor like you. With a graft total of only 1528, it sounds like he had been treated wrong by a subpar doctor before finding you! You have made a remarkable change in appearance with this session and I hope he is able to return for another if possible! Finasteride 1.25 mg. daily Avodart 0.5 mg. daily Spironolactone 50 mg twice daily 5 mg. oral Minoxidil twice daily Biotin 1000 mcg daily Multi Vitamin daily Damn, with all the stuff you put in your hair are you like a negative NW1?
