Procedure detail
This is a hair restoration patient is in his early forties with 3A loss. We performed 2,612 FU grafts (1-417, 2-1,336, 3-716, 4-143; 5,809 hairs). We simultaneously performed PRP+ACell treatment and used ACell on the grafts. He used a post operative spray we helped develop containing liposomal ATP. He returned at five and half months for a check, demonstrating early robust growth. Not all patients grow in at this rate but we are seeing more of them with our enhanced protocol. The post op ATP provides the grafts needed energy until the capillaries are formed around day 5. The transplanted hairs measured about 5 cm, indicating no telogen delay.
** Two Year Update **
I presented this case at 5 months and am now reposting with two year results. The patient is in his early forties with 3A loss. We performed 2,612 FU grafts (1-417, 2-1,336, 3-716, 4-143; 5,809 hairs). We simultaneously performed PRP+ACell treatment and used ACell on the grafts, and liposomal ATP spray post op. He had early robust growth. Not all patients grow in at this rate but we are seeing more of them with our 'bio-enhanced' protocol. Most of our patients are unable to shave any area as they need to get back to work in a week or so. He's loving the new 'Fabio' look!
Bald class
Norwood class 3A
The Norwood Class A patterns are characterized by a predominantly front to back progression of hair loss. These patterns lack the connecting bridge across the top of the scalp and generally have more limited hair loss in the crown, even when advanced.
