Regular Member Dr. Vito Quatela Posted February 27, 2014 Regular Member Share Posted February 27, 2014 This 48- year-old male patient came to us seeking a hair transplant to create a new frontal hairline. The patient was scheduled for a 2,000 graft transplant but the donor site harvest yielded a total of 2,281 grafts with a distribution of 922 single hair grafts, 1,100 two hair grafts and 259 three hair grafts. We concentrated on the frontal hairline using single hair grafts to create a natural looking irregular hairline. Following this, a combination of two and three hair grafts was used to obtain a denser concentration of hair in the central tuft and to address temporal recession. The stick and place method was used to achieve these results using 19 and 20 gauge needles. The patient was very pleased with the results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular Member bilbobaggins Posted April 13, 2015 Regular Member Share Posted April 13, 2015 I'm impressed with this result, but after doing extensive research on Dr. Quatela, why the inconsistency? I've seen his HTs vary wildly, while most of the good surgeons I see have great consistency in their results. Many of his procedures, especially based on how many grafts he gets, are definitely sub-par. I ask this as a potential customer of Dr. Quatela, as I've recently even visited their clinic to discuss a potential HT from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
