Dr. Timothy Carman Posted January 1, 2010 Share Posted January 1, 2010 (edited) We have added 14 month Follow up Photos to this patients case. There are several views to show the use of ultra-fine follicular unit graftimg in the patients hairline to soften the previous look. As well, his scar revision was accomplished utilizing a modified tricophytic closure technique. Patient is a 26 YO who had a previous procedure done at another clinic who felt the hairline looked a little too much "like a transplant", and as well had concerns about the appearance of his donor scar. Our goal was to soften the hairline while revising the donor area. His scalp had less than average laxity, and along with the previous scar this lowered his available graft supply to about 1500 FU grafts.

Regular Member Frank Posted February 1, 2011 Regular Member Share Posted February 1, 2011 Looks very natural! I agree! The photos with the hair parted really show the work done since the patient has his hair combed forward in the after pics. It looks like he is able to wear his hair short in the back now without scar showing. Very nice.
