Procedure detail
This result is one in which we treated a male hair restoration patient in his early 30's showing a class 4 likely evolving into 5/6 pattern. Given the patient's likely hair loss progression, Dr. Dorin wanted to approach this case with keeping the big picture in mind while still achieving a meaningful cosmetic change with this initial hair restoration treatment.
The FUT focused on adding density/reframing the frontal triangle as well as providing coverage selectively into the top and vertex region. As is typical, development of the transplant in the vertex tends to lag behind the change that happens in the front. Of the 2219 grafts transplanted, 553 were singles, 1610 doubles, and 56 threes: 3941 Hairs.Donor density: 65 fu/cm2, average scalp elasticity, medium texture.
Bald class
Norwood class 4
Characterized by further frontal hair loss and enlargement of vertex, but there is still a solid band of hair across the top (mid-scalp) separating front and vertex.
