Procedure detail
This 66 year old female hair restoration patient came to us for revision of her facial hair line, which,
as a result of multiple facelift procedures, had been moved posteriorly and
superiorly, relative to it's naturally occurring presurgery position.
Specifically, then, she had alopecia and scarring from those procedures which
had resulted in:
1) Receded frontal and bitemporal hairline;
2) Elevation
and recession of temporal points bilaterally;
3) Recession of bilateral
sideburn areas.
4) Scarring/thinning in areas posterior to sideburn
areas.
As this was not a case of FPHL, she had an excellent donor supply.
From a donor ellipse measuring 29 x 1.4 cm2 we utilized all FU grafts in the
following distribution: 3458 Total; 1's = 1129; 2's=2166; 3's=163. There was
acceptable closure tension using the tricophytic technique.
