Senior Member chrisdav Posted September 7, 2012 Senior Member Share Posted September 7, 2012 Excellent work. Not a lot of grafts used for the crown as well. 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member HARIRI Posted September 7, 2012 Senior Member Share Posted September 7, 2012 I thought crown is a blackhole for grafts. But with Rahal talent, this lucky patient restored his crown with only 2000+ grafts.

Senior Member Davis91 Posted September 8, 2012 Senior Member Share Posted September 8, 2012 Matt, How many Sq. CM were covered? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Janna Posted September 12, 2012 Senior Member Share Posted September 12, 2012 While we're at it with all the questions, I have one too Propecia before or after surgery? Great hair! The crown doesn't necessarily have to be a black hole. It depends on the type of loss the patient has and how much donor he has to dedicate to it. If a patient has no loss anywhere else, then he has the luxury of having enough donor for the crown to have good density.

Senior Member Cant decide Posted May 30, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted May 30, 2013 Matt - I know this is an older case but what was the total area covered in this case? It looks to be about 50 sq cm? Is that about right?

Senior Member Shampoo Posted May 30, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted May 30, 2013 It appears to me that this patient really got a lot coverage for 2111 grafts. If no graft amount had been stated I would have assumed like 2500-3000 to get that kind of look of density.

Senior Member Cant decide Posted May 30, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted May 30, 2013 Shampoo. IMO, he had more native hair in the crown than the pics really show which I think gave it that extra density. If it was 50 sq cm, that's about 43 grafts per sq cm which would be decent density for a crown restoration if it started with no hair but I agree, not quite the density seen in this final result. More info from Matt on this one would be helpful.

Senior Member Shampoo Posted May 30, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted May 30, 2013 Ok Can't decide I see what you mean. Still this patient's before/after kind of pumps me up, in that my crown still needs a bit more work, and I just assumed I might need about 3000 grafts, but I have more hair in my crown than this patient did, so maybe I can get away with 2000-2500 and use the extra grafts to add more density elsewhere.

Senior Member Davis91 Posted May 31, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted May 31, 2013 I have nothing personal against Matt, but don't hold your breath for the technical details on the work. I asked him how many Sw. CMs covered back in September on this thread and nothin' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
