Dr. Arocha | 1200 Manual FUE - African American Male


Recommended Posts

This young African American male with a NW 3 - hairline recession - elected to have an FUE procedure of 1200 FUs. The donor was quick to heal. At two weeks post-op, the hair seems to have grown back and scarring is not visible. The results showcase the hairline at 9 months post procedure.

Terrific work and a great example of what can be accomplished with 1200 grafts.  Most importantly, however, is the fact he did a successful FUE procedure.  It can be done provided the Doctor is not only good, but understands the concept of curvature of the hair.  How many times have we seen unsuccessful procedures due to the same fact and high trans-section rates.  

With the slight loss he's experiencing I wonder if he is doing Propecia/Rogaine/Laser/PRP.

Superb work!  Hairline is natural and donor looks untouched.

Is this truly “manual” fue? Like a handheld punch that is rotated by hand?

Hi LonelyGraft, 

We use both a motorized hand engine and a handheld punch!
