Senior Member Carly Posted July 25, 2012 Senior Member Share Posted July 25, 2012 This 49 year old patient came to Dr. Friedman after struggling with his hair loss for twenty years. He noticed a gradual thinning all over the top of his head and the frontal areas. Dr. Friedman was able to harvest 3,821 grafts from the patient’s donor area. 1,150 single hairs were placed to create the hairline and temporal areas. 2,671 follicular units were transplanted to the frontal region, mid-scalp, and anterior vertex. The patient shows great results with the hair induction in the scar. Using the trichophytic closure method Dr. Friedman was able to maximize the amount of grafts harvested. The results pictured are only at the six months, he is looking forward to seeing his end result when all grafts are growing.

Senior Member Blake Bloxham Posted July 25, 2012 Senior Member Share Posted July 25, 2012 Carly, I really like this case. Dr. Friedman really achieved a very natural, complete restoration and I'm sure the patient is thrilled. Nicely done!

Senior Member RCWest Posted July 26, 2012 Senior Member Share Posted July 26, 2012 At only 6 months he already has good coverage. He is well on his way to an excellent result! I like the fact that he got good coverage over the whole scalp. 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?

Senior Member Mercury Posted July 27, 2012 Senior Member Share Posted July 27, 2012 Excellent results Dr. Friedman. The more and more I see Dr. Friedman's work, the more I am impressed. IMO, Dr. Friedman is the goto doc in Phoenix, and in Arizona as a whole. Life is like a game of cards. The hand that is dealth you represents determinism; the way you play it is free will.

Senior Member Carly Posted July 30, 2012 Author Senior Member Share Posted July 30, 2012 The patient is very happy so far. Imagine what a year will bring once all the grafts are growing and reaching full maturity!

Senior Member Slickers Posted July 30, 2012 Senior Member Share Posted July 30, 2012 Excellent?! This is average at best. The guy has time on his side, it's only 6 months but this far from a stellar result at this point given the number of grafts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
