H & W Doug Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 This Vancouver area patient in his late mid to 30’s began to lose hair in his later 20’s. A more recent evaluation of his hair loss prompted a try of Rogaine for about a year with little success. Finally he decided it was time to visit Hasson and Wong in hopes of improving his hair loss situation. It was determined FUE was the best option and Dr. Hasson and staff proceeded with a 2 day FUE procedure which produced a total of 4855 grafts. Day 1 addressed the front/mid and yielded 2609 grafts of which 300 single hair grafts, 1826 were doubles and 483 were 3-4 hair grafts. Day 2’s total harvest for the crown was 2246 grafts, 1569 doubles and 677 3-4 hair grafts. These photos were taken 1 year post-op with his donor area cut to a #1 guard. The patient is extremely pleased with his result and wanted to share. We also hope to have him back soon for a video. Immediately post-op day 1 Immediately post-op day 1 Immediately post-op day 1 Immediately post-op day 2 Immediately post-op day 2 I am a salaried employee of Hasson and Wong since 2001.

Senior Member asterix0 Posted August 21, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted August 21, 2020 This result is a slam dunk 👍, even more so when you see how immaculate the donor looks. Since this guy was a high norwood patient, what convinced Dr. Hasson he could achieve such good coverage with FUE, as opposed to FUT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member kirkland Posted August 21, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted August 21, 2020 The donor area looks virtually untouched. Solid work. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senior Member Mycroft Posted August 21, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted August 21, 2020 The fact that this patient can wear his hair this short after having so many grafts extracted is pretty damn impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senior Member Future Hair Doc Posted August 21, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted August 21, 2020 Amazing results. The patient must be ecstatic about his results. He looks about 15 years younger. My advice does not constitute a patient-physician relationship nor as medical advice and all medical questions/concerns should be addressed to your medical provider.

Senior Member deitel130 Posted August 21, 2020 Senior Member Share Posted August 21, 2020 This is actually one of the best cases I've seen. Only 4800 grafts and it seems he has never had hairloss even such a short hair cut. Was laxity an issue that it was decided to proceed with FUE? Did the patient have coarse hair?

H & W Doug Posted August 21, 2020 Author Share Posted August 21, 2020 (edited) Thanks for the comments ! 20 hours ago, asterix0 said: This result is a slam dunk 👍, even more so when you see how immaculate the donor looks. Since this guy was a high norwood patient, what convinced Dr. Hasson he could achieve such good coverage with FUE, as opposed to FUT? asterix0, Dr. Hasson will assess quality and quantity of donor reserves, area to cover and a few other factors. He can then reasonably determine if the supply will meet the demand and can therefore advise the patient on what he expects can be accomplished. For FUE he'll take into consideration that he can select more double and 3-4 hair grafts which will provide more coverage than with the same number using FUT. He will also determine if the area is fairly large whether FUT should be considered first to maximize coverage in cases where the patient is open to either method he recommends. 18 hours ago, deitel130 said: This is actually one of the best cases I've seen.

Did the patient have coarse hair? deitel130, Laxity was not an issue, he could have had FUT but had conviction he wanted FUE to enable the option of this short cut. Hair texture was slightly above average. 16 hours ago, giegnosiganoe said: Did the patient take finasteride? giegnosiganoe, No. He is considering it now.
