Dr Raghu Reddy Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 32 year old male with early Norwood 2 pattern of loss, presented to us requesting a lower hairline. His initial consultation with Dr Reddy was in 2011. Dr Reddy recommended against a hair transplant in 2011 and the client was advised to try conservative measures like propecia and minoxidil as it was felt that a hair restoration procedure might not be cost-effective for what was deemed as minimal loss. However after using Propecia diligently for 3 years he came back to us requesting a lower hairline.Although he did not have a significant family history of loss and examination findings did not show any significant progressive miniaturisation, he was counselled extensively about future loss and the need for preventive measures and also further surgery. 863 grafts were transferred using FUE technique. The challenge was to make sure it improved his aesthetics and that it did not look unnatural. Attached are the pics 9 months after. I represent Dr. Raghu Reddy Dr. Raghu Reddy is recommended on the Hair Transplant Network. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member win200 Posted August 31, 2015 Senior Member Share Posted August 31, 2015 Really nice result, and good strategy. Some people will probably balk at this procedure, but it's only 863 grafts and he has a ton left if things go south later. Well done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
