Senior Member Billena Posted December 11, 2017 Senior Member Share Posted December 11, 2017 This 33-year-old man underwent a follicular unit extraction (FUE) session with Dr. Carlos K. Wesley in which a total of 2306 grafts were placed His hair follicles were incubated in autologous (his own) platelet rich plasma (PRP) throughout the duration of the procedure. This, combined with an ATP-containing storage solution has been shown to enhance survival of transplanted hairs. Rather than a larger FUE punch used by a robotic approach, Dr. Wesley used a smaller caliber hand-held motorized punch to performed the donor harvest. This approach better enabled the capture of donor hair roots that are slightly curved beneath the skin surface. Upon completion of the harvest, the patient’s donor area was treated with PRP and ACell in order to not only minimize scar tissue formation, but also encourage partial regeneration of donor hair follicles. The patient returned seventeen months year after his procedure and images of the patient can be seen below. --------- Carlos K.

Bill - Seemiller Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Dr. Wesley, Excellent transformation. Given that that hair length is different (longer in the after photos), it's difficult to really appreciate the mid to crown region. But you can really tell the difference in the hairline. Excellent! Best wishes, Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member JohnCasper Posted December 16, 2017 Senior Member Share Posted December 16, 2017 Very nice results with 2,300 grafts. Mid-to crown area looks very nice. Very natural looking results. I’m sure the patient is quite happy with Dr. Wesley’s work. My procedures were done with a 0.8 mm motorized punch as well.
