Dr Blake Bloxham Posted January 8, 2017 Share Posted January 8, 2017 I've discussed the importance of the "frontal band" procedure in a few videos before, but I wanted to share a case where I feel it really was the "right move" for a patient. This patient originally contacted me about putting "a few hundred" grafts via FUE into his hairline. I examined photos he attached and disagreed with the approach. While this may have been a viable option for an older guy with stable and minimal recession, doing these little "fill" procedures in younger guys with unstable frontal zones and future loss isn't usually the best move. So I advised him to instead consider building a solid foundation with a larger, dense pack, "frontal band" FUT procedure. He thought it over and decided to go with the plan. I designed a new hairline -- that will look as natural in his 60s and 70s as it will in his 30s -- and outlined the frontal band region behind it. I then densely filled the area with 2,000 grafts via the FUT technique. 8 months later, the patient contacted me thrilled with the results! He was very pleased we went with the more strategic and "long term" plan, and sent in the following photographs. Please see the video (which contains more pictures, explanations, and an immediate post-op video) and comparison pictures below. I've also attached the 8 month shots sent in by the patient (in case anyone wants to look at it blown up). All "after" images are sent in by the patient and have been left completely unaltered.

Dr Blake Bloxham Posted January 12, 2017 Author Share Posted January 12, 2017 Matt, Thank you. That's funny; it reminds me of those late-night informercials I'm sure we all remember from the 90's: "It's real! Your own natural, growing hair. You can cut it, dye it" ...

Dr Blake Bloxham Posted January 12, 2017 Author Share Posted January 12, 2017 Wow! Well, I checked the links and images on two different devices in a series of browsers (including chrome incognito mode) and had another person do the same, and still only saw the patient photos each time. Not sure what caused that, but appears to be cleared up. If anyone notices anything else, please don't hesitate to contact! And enjoy the SFW pictures above! And again, thank you for the kind words.
