Hair transplantation before and after images with 3817 hairs and Finasteride

Procedure detail

This hair restoration patient is in his early 30's and had Norwood 2A pattern MPB. The clinical presentation did not suggest extensive hairloss in the future (although that's never for certain) so I felt comfortable with a more agressive design than I would usually do. We prescribed Finasteride and transplanted a total of   1,819 grafts (1-425, 2-790, 3-604, total hairs= 3,817). When I saw him at nine months postoperative, I barely recognized him. Between the new hairline and hairstyle, his boyish face, and getting rid of the beard, he looked like a different person.

Bald class

Bald class 2A

Norwood class 2A.

The class A variation of the Norwood scale is a slightly different and less common progression of hair loss. The main differences are that the hairline recedes back uniformly, without leaving an island of hair in the middle, and there is no bald area at the vertex. Instead, the hairline progresses directly from front to back.
