Early Growth at 8 Months? Dr. Carlos K. Wesley 2683 FU

[Billena]

This 55-year-old man had an HT 8 years prior with a different surgeon. He presented for a session to the frontal third. These images were taken at the 8 month mark. Our offices generally anticipate full growth at 12 months. However, even 18 months after a session newly transplated hair has been shown to still be growing in anew.

Here is an update from a patient who had a prior session at another practice over 8 years prior to coming to our office. This video illustrates somewhat of a growth timeline, with after video from 8 months and 16 months.

 

 

 

His donor area video footage was taken at 8 months and the donor scar image taken 16 months after the 2683-graft session.

These intra-operative images reveal the surgical design used by Dr. Carlos K. Wesley on this patient as well as the resultant donor scar from this FUT, or "strip", harvest.
