Procedure detail
This 43 year-old Investment Broker came to Dr. Rahal after extensively
researching the forums to find a surgeon who would produce the specific results
he was looking for. Before his hair restoration, this patient would avoid
bad-weather days, as he was afraid to deal with what the elements usually did to
his thinning hair. He was a Norwood III, and didn't want to deal with the
self-esteem issues that went with his hair loss any more. In August 2012, the
patient flew to Ottawa to have his procedure in Dr. Rahal's clinic. He received
2205 grafts via FUE. The photos taken and posted here are one year after his
procedure. The patient had 450 single grafts, 1081 double grafts, and 674 triple
grafts, for a total of 4634 hairs. The patient no longer hides his head under
hats, and spends less time worrying about his hair and more time enjoying his
hobbies of exercise and golf! He recently stated in an interview that he thinks
he went to "one of, if not the very best surgeon in the field". To this day, his
hairdresser has no idea that he has had a transplant because of the natural
result!!!
