Personally I do not think much of this result at all. I think lowering the hairline/pushing temporal points forward of a 28 year old norwood 5 is borderline madness. Too few grafts were used (I'm certain the logic for using that number of grafts was probably sound, though) and the end result, in my opinion, does not look very natural at all. Not one of Dr. Bhatti's better showings.

 

That said, perhaps a far shorter cut would be more flattering and improve things.

Thank you "thatoldchestnut" for your constructive criticism.

When we post pictures they are never run of the mill.The intent is to encourage discussion on a vast gamut of indications in various patient subsets. Every set of patient results that are posted carries a different problem, a different message about our practice - like in this patient. This young patient desired a strong youthful hairline but had very little scalp donor grafts available. Utilising a relatively small number of grafts, we have been able to meet the patient's objectives to a significant extent. This was achieved by the Golden Harvest Technique (anagen selective hair transplant aka FUE technique).

Is it just me or the depletion in the donor area looks quite concerning
