Senior Member sl Posted February 19, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted February 19, 2013 Our Patient had undergone two previously failed hair transplant procedures with other clinics. The first one he had was to rebuild his hair line using FUT and the second was to refine the hair line and then increase the coverage behind the hair line using 4000 FUE. The second procedure caused a great reduction in the density of his donor area and poor yield in the recipient area. We used 2716 grafts, a combination of 2056 FUT 660 FUE to refine the hair line and then improve his hair coverage in the central area. The combination was used to minimise any further changes in the donor area as the previous FUE had already over harvested and reduced the density to below average. PRE OPERATION AND GRAFT PLACEMENT 7 MONTHS POST OP AND COMPARISON 9 MONTHS POST OP 10 months update I represent Dr. Bisanga.

Senior Member Mickey85 Posted February 19, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted February 19, 2013 nice repair. his scar is barely visible even with his low density and wet hair. is his donor area depleted. or does he still have some grafts left via strip?

Senior Member Bobilero Posted February 19, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted February 19, 2013 Nice work. He will have a great result. Has the patient buzzed his hair at 9 months? Its interesting to see that at 7 months he looks to have great coverage. However at 9 months when buzzed it dosent look as filled in. Is this generally a hall mark of HT's in that they look much more dense grown out as opposed to buzzed.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member sl Posted February 19, 2013 Author Senior Member Share Posted February 19, 2013 Thank you for the comments. For Strip I doubt we would do another one on him, this is in essence his second Strip and it healed well but we would also need to make sure he has the laxity for it also. His donor was depleted in areas as said and I think when longer in the pre-op photos it actually looked weaker than post op. As for the look, undoubtedly slightly longer hair helped with the illusion of coverage. There are really sweet spots whereby the hair transplant will give a better illusion at a certain length and for some cutting it short will give a different appearance as the hair is not allowed to curtain and give coverage that longer hair affords.

Senior Member MAGNUMpi Posted February 20, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted February 20, 2013 This guy looks MUCH better now. One case where a FUT scar looked better than what the FUE did. Any idea why his first FUE went so wrong? That's some crazy over-harvesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Mickey85 Posted February 26, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted February 26, 2013 agreed. especially his fue work. it has the precision and artistic flair that feriduni also exhibits. both doctors fut work is great too(i really like Bisanga's suturing technique) but their fue results put them in front of most other fue docs.

Regular Member Since13 Posted February 26, 2013 Regular Member Share Posted February 26, 2013 When I read about the two failed procedures [cringe] and that his donor area has depleted and that 2600 somthing grafts would be transplanted, I did not expect much. But WOW... absolutely breathtaking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member sl Posted February 26, 2013 Author Senior Member Share Posted February 26, 2013 Thank you for the comments. FUE takes from density so it really is a technique that needs to be spread and especially so for larger numbers, it is important to use as much surface area as possible in order to minimise the change in density and to allow a good extraction pattern so as to not choke out any particular area. There needs to be thought in the harvesting pattern and with regards to the type of grafts needed for certain areas. When it comes to repair work like this then it is a different ball game to some degree and the doctor needs to cherry pick and also harvest the better areas to bring lesser contrast between the over and non harvested areas. This patients donor in fact looks better post the repair surgery with more taken and also the way in which he wears his hair I think helps to bring off the change in the donor thinning.

Senior Member Garageland Posted October 9, 2014 Senior Member Share Posted October 9, 2014 Very interesting case and it worked out very well for the patient especially considering his donor was less than ideal.
