Strip natural results from 2500 grafts w/Dr. Cole

Postby forhair » Wed Apr 25, 2007 10:56 am

The patient is a 46 year old man with androgenetic alopecia, Class III-V, who wished to fill in his thinning crown and restore his hairline.

He underwent single-blade harvest strip surgery, with approximately 2500 grafts placed.

Notice the mature, age-appropriate hairline, which is soft and feathered at the anterior margin. The crown was grafted with minimal numbers, low-density, to avoid problems in the future.

Sorry but i have another question, the results on the crown are very impressive, how many grafts out of the 2500 n total were placed in the crown?

I believe about 300-400 in the crown.

Above average density, in some areas 100-110 FU's per cm2, 200 hairs per cm2.
He is a little older, never plans to wear his hair short, and wanted to do the strip to save on time and money.
With his density, he can probably do several more if needed, which would entail taking out the old scar with any new strips; thus, he still has only one scar.

nice, dr cole can do wonderful strip surgeries and in this case it makes sense.
i realy like the way the crown got filled out with only 400 grafts, and also the hairline is as usual very natural...bravo!
