Dr. Jean Devroye Posted September 22, 2017 Share Posted September 22, 2017 (edited) PATIENT'S DETAILS ✓ 28 years old, NW III, losing hair since the age of 18, no hair loss history in his family. ✓ Taking Finasteride 1mg since one year and a half before the surgery. ✓ Medium caliber hair. ✓ Normal follicular units. ✓ Low % of hair in telogen phase. RECOMMENDED TREATMENT This young man came to visit me to find a solution for his receding hairline and temple corners. During the pre-op consultation, we agreed upon a FUE procedure consisting in 2000-2200 grafts. Eventually, we were able to harvest 2203 grafts, including a very important number of singles (678) that were used to rebuild his very first hairline. At the 8th post-op month mark, the patient already experienced a noticeable regrowth. After one year and four months, he submitted the pictures below, which show very natural results that make him completely satisfied about the work done. SURGERY DETAILS ✓ 2203 grafts ✓ Technique: FUE ✓ FUE scoring and extractions executed with my WAW system, now widely used in the sphere of FUE. It consists of a very precise pedal that enables to control the movement of the punch, that I also designed myself. The main advantage is to reduce substantially the number of damaged and transected hair, thus to raise the quality of the procedure. The system is now used worldwide and several dozens of surgeons or centres are already using it. ✓ Incisions: 40-45/cm2 ✓ Grafts Breakdown: ☞ 689 Single FUE grafts ☞ 781 Double FUE grafts ☞ 571 Triple FUE grafts ☞ 162 Quadruple FUE grafts ✓ Total number of Hair: 4612 ✓ Average Hair/Graft: 2.09 Dr. Jean Devroye Edited September 22, 2017 by Dr. Jean Devroye, MD - Dr. Jean Devroye HTS Clinic - Bruxelles Email: info@hts-clinic.com Telephone: +32 2 880 70 60 Website: https://www.hair-transplant-surgery.com/en/home Online consultation: https://www.hair-transplant-surgery.com/en/Online-diagnostic Devroye Instruments: https://www.devroyeinstruments.com/ Dr. Devroye is a member of the Coalition of Independent Hair Restoration Physicians Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Gasthoerer Posted September 22, 2017 Senior Member Share Posted September 22, 2017 Very nice and especially very natural looking result. Question: I have hardly seen any cases which such a strong difference in the direction of the slits? There is even one line of slits in between which is 90° to all the others. Why is that? 400+ grafts in 2018 and 2900 grafts in 2020 via FUE with Feriduni Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Jean Devroye Posted September 28, 2017 Author Share Posted September 28, 2017 Fantastic he must be very pleased! Very natural result. I don't think I can remember seeing this either. Very good case though. Very nice and especially very natural looking result. Question: I have hardly seen any cases which such a strong difference in the direction of the slits? There is even one line of slits in between which is 90° to all the others. Why is that? Baldrick, Dolph, Spanker, Gasthoerer, thank you for the comments and for the positive feedback. Concerning the making of the slits: this is a pattern that I normally follow during all my procedures. The small incisions made in the very first hairline are coronal slits. Inserted in this kind of incisions, the future single hair will be allowed to follow a slightly horizontal movement - emulating the natural behavior of native hair. The other incisions, after the hairline, are sagittal slits and are intended to accommodate the bigger grafts - double and triple. The vertical pattern of these incisions will allow for an increased illusion of volume and density. The small line that you have noticed is actually a purely "organizational" indication for my assistants, so that during the placement phase they know when to switch from double to triple grafts implantation. It is basically the dividing line between double and triple grafts. You can see below another example, this is a patient who had this procedure during this week. Lower implantation density than the case posted here, but same slits pattern. Hope this helps, Jean Devroye Dr. Jean Devroye HTS Clinic - Bruxelles Email: info@hts-clinic.com Telephone: +32 2 880 70 60 Website: https://www.hair-transplant-surgery.com/en/home Online consultation: https://www.hair-transplant-surgery.com/en/Online-diagnostic Devroye Instruments: https://www.devroyeinstruments.com/ Dr. Devroye is a member of the Coalition of Independent Hair Restoration Physicians Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Gasthoerer Posted September 28, 2017 Senior Member Share Posted September 28, 2017 Hope this helps, Thank you very much for the detailed Explanation. Very interesting that different clinics still follow their own protocols. Maybe this is part (!) of the reason I like hairlines from certain clinics mre than from others (equal growth considered). 400+ grafts in 2018 and 2900 grafts in 2020 via FUE with Feriduni Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
