[Dr. Bijan Feriduni]

FUT performed on a 34 year old African male with:

- NW Class III anterior class N

- Donor density of ~45-50 FU/cm??

- Hair diameter of ~95 microns

Treatment plan:

- A cheloid test with 100 FU

- A strip procedure with 1800 follicular units to reshape the face and fill in the mid head area

- A medical therapy with Minoxidil 5% lotion

Performed procedure (April 09, 2009):

A Follicular Unit Strip Transplantation with 1740 FU

* 490 single hair FU

* 820 double hair FU

* 430 triple hair FU

Donor closing in double layer suture;

Donor strip extraction with The Haber spreader?„?;

The average density is about 30 FU/cm??. Thanks to the frizzy structure of the patient's hair, the optic density looks very high, even at 8 months postoperative.
