Buzz Cut Patient With 6300 Grafts Update At 2 Years - Clean Beard Area After 4500 UGr

[Abbie]

This post represents a two year update (since his last procedure) for a patient of Dr. U who received 6300 grafts of beard, head and nape hair. He continues to show abundant coverage as well as improvement in the repair results of his strip scar which gave him the confidence to wear his hair even shorter. Also he proudly wears a soft facial stubble since there are no obvious signs of surgery despite the 4300 grafts that were extracted from this region.

 

His initial intent was to correct the mistakes made by a previous strip transplant procedure performed at another clinic. However, this operation resulted in poor growth along with a linear scar.

 

His objective of restoring full global coverage was not feasible through conventional methods which can only use grafts taken from the scalp.

 

Since Dr. U developed UGraft as a reliable means for acquiring additional donor follicles from body and beard regions, the patient decided to choose this type of surgery.

 

A Renewed Hairline, Temples Crown and No More Strip Scar Worries

 

With the 6300 grafts, Dr. U replenish the patient’s coverage and created a youthful looking hairline along with matching temples to best frame his face.

 

Beard hair follicles were inserted into the strip scar tissue to obscure the empty line on the patient’s scalp. He had previously tried to keep this hidden by wearing his hair in long shaggy lengths. But the successful repair with facial hair insertions enabled him to feel bold enough to cut his hair in a short buzz cut style. During his prior visit to our clinic, he had his hair cut short in a classic conservative style. But in 2015, he felt even braver by cropping his hair much shorter as the strip scar has become much less visible.

 

 

 

 

 

Amazing Healing of the Beard Area

 

The donor areas of the patient’s face and healed in a most excellent and pristine manner despite experience the extraction of 4500 grafts. In his update video below, Dr. U asked him what his thoughts were upon seeing his chin in the mirror. He answered, “It looks normal. There is no scar.”

 

Also Dr. U selected the beard hair grafts in a such a way to avoid creating obvious patches of missing hair. Many men enjoy sporting soft stubble on their face, or even a fully grown beard. Therefore, the strategic and diffuse removal of follicles is essential for enabling this.
