Dr. Vladimir Panine Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 (edited) This 34 year old gentleman came to me hopeful that I could rebuild his hairline and add more density to the frontal area of his scalp. After establishing his medical history and understanding the progression of his hair loss, I diagnosed his condition as Androgenetic Alopecia (male pattern baldness), ruling out any other possible dermatological or medical conditions which can cause hair loss. The patient’s goal was well suited to his needs and therefore I planned the surgery accordingly. A total of 3,232 grafts were used. The break down was as follows: 1,880 single hair grafts, 1,272 two hair grafts, and 80 three hair grafts. I used significantly more single hair follicular units which allowed me to create a very natural hairline. This action will allow him to expose his hairline without anyone detecting that he has had anything done. More grafts were packed into the frontal 1/3 and less packed farther back into the mid zone. These are his results 7 months post-op with more improvement to come over the next couple of months.

Regular Member bowl81 Posted January 5, 2013 Regular Member Share Posted January 5, 2013 I've been doing research on HTN for a few hour tonight and it looks like I saved the best for last. It never fails when I come across either one of your posts or posts by your patients the documentation gets me motivated. I just read a post by one of your patients [seizingFate] that documented his whole case from start to finish. Hats off to you and your staff-literally considering SeizingFate and the patient documented here won't need to wear hats anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
