Procedure detail
This is a nine month postoperative result for a 52 year old patient who underwent 3008 grafts in a single hair transplant session. The patient initially expressed an interest in reestablishing his frontal hairline and boosting density throughout his entire thinning scalp. His donor region was found to be relatively snug and it was advised that he focus restoration on the frontal hairline and midscalp region to accommodate the limitations of graft availability. The surgical plan was designed to use a relatively small number of the available grafts for creating a subtle transitional density gradient from the thicker midscalp into a thinning crown
Bald class
Norwood stage 5
Occurs when the connecting bridge of hair disappears leaving a single large bald area on the front and top of the scalp. The hair on the sides of the scalp remains relatively high.
