Procedure detail
This patient is in his early 60's and has been on finasteride for many years. He had a hair transplant about 10 years prior of about 2500 grafts. His donor was not that great. We performed FUT of 3,315 grafts (6,252 hairs) and PRP/ACell. He is shown 15 months later. His grafts grew in well and there was a nice thickening effect from the PRP/ACell. He may come back to fill in the fronto-temporal corners a little. As usual, we did not shave so the patient could return to work in 7-10 days.
Bald class
Norwood stage 3 Vertex
In terms of the receding hairline, stage 3 vertex balding is a less drastic version of stage 3.
However, people experiencing stage 3 vertex balding will also begin losing hair on the crown of their head. This often starts as one small bald spot.
