Steven Gabel, MD, FACS Posted June 12, 2014 Share Posted June 12, 2014 We are presenting a 56-year-old gentleman who is 7 months out from a hair transplant to restore the frontal hairline. His goal was to redefine the frontal hairline so it flowed smoothly into his existing hair. We are presenting four views: frontal, top, left and right. Each series shows photos before markup with the hair pulled back to demonstrate the degree of alopecia in the frontal region, the lines drawn preoperatively which will be used to recreate/define the frontal hairline, an immediate postoperative photograph, and a 7-month result. The results show the transplanted hairs appear very natural, and they frame his face very well. The density of the transplant also shows a nice progression from anterior to posterior.

Senior Member Rootz Posted June 13, 2014 Senior Member Share Posted June 13, 2014 For a clinic I think these are pretty weak pictures, and I get the feeling they were taken to intentionally conceal what appears to be relatively low density at the hairline. The pics are all taken at angles and distances where the details are hard to see. He has blond hair which makes closeups (and of course better angles) even more necessary. This guy is only 7 months so he probably has more growing to do. If this was his final result I would not be impressed though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have to disagree with you Rootz, most clinics don't post this many angles including above head shots. I like the presentation I think it's difficult to see the contrast between his hair and scalp due to his native hair color, not due to anything the clinic is trying to hide. go dense or go home Unbiased advice and opinions based on 25 plus years of researching and actual experience with hair loss, hair restoration via both FUT & FUE, SMP, scalp issues including scalp eczema & seborrheic dermatitis and many others HSRP10's favorite FUT surgeons: *Dr. Konior, *Dr Hasson, Dr. Rahal HSRP10's favorite FUE surgeons: *Dr. Konior, *Dr. Bisanga, Dr. Erdogan, Dr. Couto (*indicates actual experience with doctor) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
