Steven Gabel, MD, FACS Posted March 9, 2013 Share Posted March 9, 2013 This patient is a 42 year old who is now 3 years out from 2642 grafts to the frontal hairline region. After 3 years, he is holding onto his native hairs pretty well as he is on finasteride and minoxidil. He styles his hair as shown with a spike even with short hair. The gel that he uses also gives a "wet" appearance which usually makes the hair look thinner; despite that, his hair still appears thick. At this point, he has no plans for a future transplant as this accomplished his goals and medical therapy is maintaining his native hair very well. The photographs show our standard views with several very close up shots (the camera was only a couple inches away with a macro lens) illustrating the dense packing of the frontal hairline and the micro-irregularity pattern used to create the natural hairline with this patient.

Senior Member PupDaddy Posted March 9, 2013 Senior Member Share Posted March 9, 2013 Lovely, refined, age-appropriate work for this gent, making excellent use of a relatively small number of grafts that frames his face nicely and allows him to wear a short haircut. Things look to have held up well for him in the three years since his transplant. He must be happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
