Here is a class 3 patient who recently came to us in hopes of thickening the hair line. Dr. Cole and team transferred approx. 700 CIT (non-strip) grafts to reinforce the frontal hair line, and fill in the temporal peaks. The photos attached below, depict the new growth that was seen just a few months after the procedure. Typically, scalp donor hair can become visible at about three months to 8 months after the procedure. The result is now fully matured and also appropriately complements this middle-aged patient’s facial characteristics. The soft appearance of the hair line allows the patient to go undetectable in the public eye. CIT is a non-strip surgical procedure that entails between 0 to 2 percent transaction (minimal trauma to follicles), 2.9 hairs per graft (effective harvesting), and produces consistently natural looking results. More hair per graft can exponentially benefit any patient because it lowers the consumption of donor area resource while giving patients more coverage value per graft for their hard earned money. Generally speaking, non-strip methods of hair restoration procedures are commonly associated with much less noticeable scarring and minimal visual evidence from the procedure. Still there are no guarantees that no scarring will occur after hair restoration surgery. We are pleased to follow the results of another satisfied patient.
