Dr. Lindsey 3 years out from frontal case, fine hair, middle eastern guy

[Dr. William Lindsey]

This 30's year old guy stopped in for a refill of meds...which I am not sure are doing anything as you'll see in the pics. He has limited donor hair quantity and quality...but we made the most of 2200 or so grafts a few years ago and he looks good. I wish he had thicker hairs and more of them...but that is what his parents gave him. He's getting ready to do a 2nd case, which will probably yield 1800 grafts or so and give him coverage of the frontal third. In a denser hair person, we'd hit that all in a day, but again, in his case it is not money, but donor hair, which limits his options.

Sometimes pics make it hard to tell what's going on. His hair doesn't look fine and his density looks at least average.

 

This is why I always recommend in person consults prior to surgery if at all possible.

[Dr. William Lindsey]

Spanker your summary is right on... my disclaimer to these guys flying in is that we HAVE to meet the day before surgery or earlier as you never know what they have to work with.

 

Good advice as always from you.
